As hotel stays plummeted in 2020 at the height of the pandemic, daily housekeeping was one of the first services to be cut, but even as travel revived, it’s not coming back. It’s part of a wider trend within hospitality, fueling the rise of third-party operators. Many hotels are considering permanent cuts to a range of services, including cleaning and free breakfasts.
Private equity firm H.I.G. Capital has acquired Enseo, a technology services provider that is expanding from the hospitality vertical into senior living, education, and healthcare. Enseo plans to use the investment to rapidly accelerate growth, both organically and inorganically, according to the company.
The investment in Enseo Inc., best known for delivering in-room entertainment to TVs in nearly 2,000 hotels in North America, comes after founder Vanessa Ogle pivoted last year to keep the company afloat after the COVID-19 pandemic closed down the hospitality industry for months.
H.I.G. Capital, a private equity and alternative assets investment firm, has acquired a majority interest in Enseo, a company that’s best known for delivering in-room digital entertainment via hotel TVs.

“Enseo has put all of our engineering and inventing into redefining the guest experience with touchless technologies. The ability to use your own phone to control the TV and room around you will bring comfort and confidence for guests while traveling,” said Vanessa Ogle, CEO and Founder of Enseo Holdings™, Inc.

“We are absolutely seeing an increase in investment technology by the big hotel brands,” Enseo Founder and CEO Vanessa Ogle says. “And a lot of this investment is around areas of safety— for employee safety.”
Last year, Lovejoy brought the Enseo MadeSafe device to St. Francis. It’s a button worn around every staff member’s neck. If there’s an emergency, they hold the button down which sends out an alert.
Ogle says that those first few years were difficult, and that it was a challenge to get those in the industry to take her seriously. Rather than discouraging her, though, these doubters inspired Ogle to develop her business and grow her company, which, in turn, bolstered her confidence.
“We’ve created a platform that protects — a series of cloud-based management tools interacting with various hardware devices, software applications and content.”

At this year’s HITEC, vendors wanted to convey was that their technology would make hoteliers’ and guests’ lives easier.
Vanessa Ogle, founder and CEO, Enseo, echoed this point. “When we launch a platform, how do we make it beneficial to each one of the constituents, so there’s benefits for everyone?”
When Vanessa Ogle founded Enseo nearly 20 years ago, she focused on designing and selling hardware and software to third parties, which in turn brought the technology into hotels and other “people places.” Six years ago, though, Ogle changed the company’s model.

October 25, 2017 Vanessa, can you briefly walk us through your story – how you started and how you got to where you are today.
Like most people, the idea of paying USD20 in a hotel room to “buy a movie” never made sense to Vanessa. As the years went by, and more and more travelers journeyed with their own personal mobile devices on which they could work and watch movies and stream TV, it seemed like a personal affront. Vanessa wondered, Were there other people out there who felt the same? And if so, someone should do something about it.
