What’s the State of the Security and Smart Home Market in Europe?

The new report, “State of Residential Security and Smart Home in Europe” hones in the state of home security and smart home offerings in Europe and analyzes the challenges faced by companies looking for a piece of that market. Additionally, the report also profiles the European householders who have already adopted security systems at home.

"A growing amount of hype surrounds the smart home concept in Europe, but consumer awareness in Western European countries still needs to grow," Stuart Sikes, president at Parks Associates says. "Several innovative smart home products are gaining traction and helping to increase awareness and adoption of both smart home products and interactive security systems."
