At the Parks Associates’ Connections conference in Burlingame, CA this week, major leaders in Smart Home technological development are convening to discuss the state and future of their industry. Their insights are most illuminating.

In order to attain mass adoption of Smart Home technology, these makers need to help the general public understand the benefits and features of their services such that consumers become willing to “open up their wallets” and pay for them.
