Company Press Release
February 21, 2000
LAS VEGAS, NV -- InnTechnology, the Glendale, Calif.-based corporation providing technology products and services
to the hospitality industry, has teamed up with the new luxurious Venetian Resort-Hotel-Casino in Las Vegas to
provide the company's proprietary In-Room-Office system to every one of The Venetian's magnificent 700-square-foot
suites.
The HP OfficeJet 520 all-in-one color printer/fax/scanner/copier is one of the many cutting-edge amenities that
The Venetian is providing to all of its guests at the 3,036-suite resort.
InnTechnology's product and services, along with the HP OfficeJet 520 all-in-one product, enable the guest to print
reports, email and other business or personal information, in color, in the convenience of their room. The Venetian's
guests do not have to run down to the hotel's business center or to the nearest copy store to print, fax, scan
or copy.
In addition, the fax service is unique in that each guest gets a private fax number when he/she checks in allowing
personal direct faxing in and out of the suite. The guest can also print his/her hotel bill in the room and check
out without having to visit the front desk.
``We have been tremendously gratified at the positive response our guests have had to InnTechnology's service,''
said Jack Braman, VP Information Technologies of The Venetian. ``The guests love having an all-in-one in the room;
they tell us it enhances their stay and enables them to be more productive when they choose to be.
``It is one more way we have been able to create the world's finest hospitality experience for our guests,'' added
Braman.
Built at the site of the former Sands Hotel and Casino, The Venetian includes the first all-suites hotel on the
``Strip'' with 3,036 suites (note: the standard room averages 700 sq. ft. and includes two 27`` color televisions,
a safe, a mini bar, the HP OfficeJet 520 all-in-one printer/fax/scanner/copier, three telephones and other lavish
appointments to accommodate business and frequent independent travelers); a gaming facility of approximately 120,000
sq. ft.; The Grand Canal Shoppes of approximately 500,000 sq. ft.; and The Venetian Congress Center of approximately
500,000 sq. ft.-- all connected to the existing Sands Expo and Convention Center.
The combination of the hotel, meeting space and The Sands Expo and Convention Center meeting space of 1.7 million
sq. ft. makes The Venetian the world's largest hotel and convention complex under one roof.
Mirrored after Renaissance-Venice, the highly themed resort includes waterways, gondolas and replicas of Venetian
landmarks such as the Doge's Palace, the Rialto Bridge, the Ca D'Oro and the Campanile Tower.
``The Grand Canal Shoppes,'' the complex's indoor mall area, features a one-quarter mile Venetian streetscape with
intimate ``piazza''- style settings and a ``Grand Canal'' running its length with a fleet of functional gondolas,
singing gondoliers and waterside cafes crossed by authentically styled Venetian bridges.
The Venetian Resort-Hotel-Casino opened May 3, 1999 and includes some of the finest themed-entertainment concepts
in the U.S. In addition to brand name and exclusive boutique shopping in The Grand Canal Shoppes, The Venetian
has the first ever stateside Madame Tussaud's wax museum; a 65,000-square-foot SpaClub by Canyon Ranch; and restaurants
such as Emeril Lagasse's Delmonico Steakhouse, Joachim Splichal's Pinot Brassiere, Canaletto by the creators of
Il Fornaio, Eberhard Muller's Lutece, Grand Lux Cafe by the creators of the Cheesecake Factory, Piero Selvaggio's
Valentino, Stephan Pyle's Star Canyon and Taqueria Canonita, Gian Paolo Belloni's Zefferino, and Kevin Wu's Royal
Star
