Description
Have you already gotten questions from your clients on new Matter and Thread products hitting the market? If not, you soon will, as the open era of the smart home built on these standards is here — and likely already in many of your clients’ homes.
The consumer smart home industry has come together to develop these open interoperability technologies, now supported by Amazon, Apple, Google, Samsung, and a growing number of device-maker brands. This is your opportunity to hear directly from experts and leaders of the Matter and Thread initiatives on how these technologies work, how adoption is going, what is on the roadmap, and how you can leverage them to grow your business.
As the DIY and professionally installed smart homes continue to evolve and overlap, it’s increasingly important to know how to incorporate these new technologies and products into your business, channel relationships, and customer education.
