10 Best IoT Insights and Smart-Home Quotes from Connections 2018

A short woman trips on the way to the podium of the first panel discussion at Connections 2018, produced by smart-home research firm Parks Associates. She snipes, "And I'm a morning person." You know it's going to be a lively affair.

That lady, Lisa Fetterman, founder and CEO of the sous-vide sensation Nomiku, would end up stealing the show with her snappy comments, endearing sales pitches ("Try it for just $49 with this special code* ...") and superb insights about data from connected kitchens. But she had some competition.

The 22nd Annual Connections Conference was chock full of colorful comments and interesting insights from the who's who of IoT. Obviously I couldn't sit through all of the sessions -- covering insurance, tech support, security, aging in place, voice control, utilities, AI, connected-home investments, and the rest of it -- but I typed furiously through several of the keynotes and panel discussions, capturing a few gems in the process.
