Emerald’s Connecting Point Marketing Group, Healthcare Design and Hospitality Design event portfolios, announced the creation and launch of the COVIDSolutions Resource directory. Representing a comprehensive collection of innovative solutions from nearly 400 companies, the COVIDSolutions Resource Directory will serve as an important resource for connecting businesses that are seeking various PPE and other innovations to address associate and guest safety for the COVID-19 crisis.
The COVIDSolutions Resource Directory presents buying executives across all segments of retail, restaurants, hotels, healthcare and senior living markets an expansive roster of product categories from companies that provide solutions for the “built environment.”
“This important new offering was created in consultation with retail, hotel, restaurant, healthcare and senior living executives, who expressed widespread challenges coping with the COVID-19 pandemic. Through the COVIDSolutions Resource directory, we are aggregating resources and helping connect the market with solutions. There is an urgent need for resources: from PPE, sanitization, wayfinding, barriers and queuing,” says Nancy Splaine, EVP, Connecting Group Marking Group. “As the world rebounds from COVID-19, innovation for well-designed, long-lasting solutions for employees, customers, guests and patients will emerge from the solution providers in the industries we serve,” adds Gannon Brousseau, EVP of Design, Jewelry & Antique.
“Over the past month, Emerald has been working to identify the current challenges our markets are facing and develop solutions in response to the need for COVID-19 resources,” says Brian Field, interim president and CEO, Emerald. “The creation of the COVIDSolutions Resource directory reflects Emerald’s commitment to responding to the needs of our customers and the health and safety of our communities.”
The categories of solutions in the COVIDSolutions Resource directory include Building Materials, Building Systems, Cleaning and Sanitization, Design, Equipment, Fixtures and Millwork, Flooring, Lighting, PPE and Protective fixturing, Service Providers and Technology and will be regularly updated with new suppliers and solutions.
