CEDIA US Expo hosts industry thought leaders
“The topics these training courses and panels are covering don’t just represent ‘cool’ emerging trends, they’re vital topics. 4K, object based audio, commoditised home automation, and the internet of things will change how home technology professionals do business,” senior director of learning and emerging trends Dave Pedigo says.
“These new courses, combined with the opening keynote presented by Sony and the training keynote by CompTIA will provide attendees a full picture of all that is going on in the industry.”

The recently added course on the Internet of Things (EST090-1) is a course that applies not only to home technology professionals but also to manufacturers.
“2014 has been named the year of the Internet of Things, so getting to glean information from the inventor of 6LoWPAN couldn’t be more relevant,” Dave says.
“Attendees have the opportunity learn more about what will become the de-facto standard for IP in the industry.”
