“Our industry is full of small business owners who share a passion for smart home technology and how technology can enhance homeowners’ lives,” says Giles Sutton, CEDIA Interim co-CEO and SVP member success and sales. “Yet to be successful and stand out from the crowd, integrators must develop more than just technical skills and become masters at business. That’s why we’re excited to partner with Grow with Google. We’ve supplemented CEDIA’s high-quality education with courses and content that equips integrators with the tools they need to level up their businesses and to help them go from strength to strength.”
The latest on Google learning relating to smart home connectivity and other business growth opportunities with Google’s Nest Pro program will also be detailed May 19 at the Nest Pro Virtual Summit.
