For nearly 10 years, AiN Group — Managing Partner of GE Home Technologies — has gone way beyond the burglar alarm and focused to provide complete electronic low-voltage solutions for developers, home builders and consumers throughout the United States.
Last year at CEDIA, less than 24 hours after having landed in Atlanta to attend AiN Group’s annual Live and Learn Convention for the first time, I was posing in front of an Orange County Chopper motorcycle and listening to AiN Group’s own house band, Cat 5 and the Integrators absolutely rock out the Hard Rock Café Atlanta on a Thursday night. Mind you, that was only a few hours after I’d walked out of the afternoon’s annual business luncheon armed with detailed research on the industry that had been presented alongside cutting-edge strategies, best business practices and new opportunities for attendees. I quickly learned that the staff at AiN Group and its dealers rival any group in the industry for simultaneously working outrageously hard and enjoying the ride.
If you haven’t heard of the AiN Group, you most definitely have heard of many of its 175 dealers (including companies in the SDM 100 — companies such as Guardian Protection Services, Mountain Alarm, EMC Security, Crime Prevention Security Systems, Post Alarm, Custom Alarm, SSA and others). You’ve certainly also heard of many its 24 strategic partners — most notably, The General Electric Corporation. The AiN Group is the GE Home Technologies Managing Partner, and AiN Group dealers have access to GE Appliances energy management solutions and GE lighting solutions.
