Revolutionizing Elevator Experiences with LiveLift

In a remarkable advancement in building technology, ECN (Executive Channel Network) has partnered with Dewhurst to introduce LiveLift, a revolutionary smart screen system integrated into elevator cabins. This innovation aims to enhance the experience of passengers during their short commutes within the building.

The LiveLift screens are designed to communicate valuable information while passengers travel between floors. Imagine stepping into an elevator and being greeted with live news updates, weather forecasts, traffic conditions, and personalized messages specific to the building you're in. The sleek and modern displays provide an opportunity to engage building occupants during their elevator rides, turning previously mundane moments into interactive experiences.

Charles Parry-Okeden, the Global CEO of ECN, emphasizes the significance of this technology, stating, "We're transforming a traditionally passive space into an active, high-attention channel. LiveLift is more than just screens; it's about fostering meaningful connections with tenants right at the heart of their environments."

With two service tiers available, LiveLift caters to various needs: Premium offers a fully managed, plug-and-play solution with dynamic content curated by ECN, while Premium + provides building managers with a self-service portal to customize announcements and tailor messages in real time. This flexibility allows property owners to adapt the content to suit their specific needs, enhancing tenant engagement.

Dewhurst, which brings over a century of experience in the lift industry, is excited about this partnership. Peter Dewhurst, Managing Director at Dewhurst, remarked, "We’re thrilled to launch LiveLift as part of our new Atom screen range. Our legacy is built on quality and trust within the lift industry, and this new phase is all about innovative functionality. The dynamic content and management platform provided by ECN perfectly complement our advanced hardware offerings. Together, we’re creating a future-ready solution."

The official unveiling of LiveLift occurred at LiftEx, the premier lift and escalator exhibition held in London on June 9, 2025. Attendees witnessed firsthand how this cutting-edge solution could seamlessly integrate into modern architecture, offering a practical application of technology in everyday life.

ECN specializes in managed digital signage solutions for premium commercial spaces, dealing with over 600 office buildings across the UK and Europe. Their commitment is to provide real-time, high-value content tailored specifically for today’s office audiences. The introduction of LiveLift is a natural extension of their ongoing mission to innovate how information is shared and accessed in shared spaces.

In addition, Dewhurst’s reputation for manufacturing superior lift components positions them favorably in the market for smart display solutions in vertical transport. Their Atom screen represents this new frontier, offering versatility and reliability, essential for modern buildings aiming to enhance occupant experience.
