Brivo, a provider in cloud-based access control and smart building technologies, and Crown PropTech Acquisitions, a publicly traded special purpose acquisition company, announced they have entered into a definitive merger agreement that will result in Brivo becoming a publicly listed company.

Brivo, a global provider of cloud-based access control and smart apartment automation, has launched Brivo Access, a unified security platform delivering new digital transformation capabilities for organizations worldwide. 

OpenEye, a provider of cloud-managed video surveillance solutions, is expanding its partner ecosystem with a new cloud-to-cloud integration with Brivo, a cloud-based access control and security platform. 

Brivo surveyed 159 security professionals in August 2020 and compared its findings to the same survey conducted in December 2019 to find out how needs have changed in 2020.

The Brivo financing program allows customers to implement access control, multifamily or video surveillance projects with little to no upfront investment and consistent, predictable payments over time.

The COVID-19 pandemic has completely turned our world upside down. And as unemployment rates rise, crime is surely soon to follow, making security more important than ever.

The acquisition — the first in the company’s 20 year history — accelerates Brivo’s ongoing push to enhance its in-building capabilities beyond its current access control, video and security. 

Brivo Systems LLC, Bethesda, Md., and Eagle Eye Networks, Austin, Tex., announced a strategic alliance to integrate Brivo OnAir™ and the Eagle Eye Security Camera VMS, to deliver customers a unified cloud-based access control and video surveillance system.
