CONNECTIONS™ agenda features over 100 executives discussing connected entertainment, smart home, and Internet of Things

More U.S. households now own a smartphone than a desktop, according to new research that Parks Associates will discuss at the 19th-annual CONNECTIONS™: The Premier Connected Home Conference, May 19-21, in San Francisco. In the last five years, desktop adoption declined from 90% to 69% among U.S. broadband households, while smartphone adoption increased from 36% to 78%. Tablet adoption increased from 7% to 63%.

“The U.S population has made a dramatic shift to mobile devices and services, which they are using to access content in the cloud and check the smart devices in their connected home,” said Stuart Sikes, President, Parks Associates. “At CONNECTIONS™, we will analyze the implications of this new post-desktop world.”
