SmartHome Initiative Germany invites to expert forum

The SmartHome Initiative Germany is a cross-industry, interdisciplinary communication platform. It is intended to serve the exchange of experience between the regional SmartHome organisations and providers from research, development, industry, trade and crafts.

Members of the initiative cover the entire spectrum of building automation: Electrics, electronics, IT, IoT, TC, CE, medical technology, industry, trade, crafts, architecture, research and teaching. The members and their organisations are geared towards demonstrating new possibilities for the efficient use of energy to users, tenants and owners of flats and private homes.

The technologies presented represent the industry’s current range of services. Regular specialist conferences ensure that knowledge is kept up to date. Research projects are supported by the contribution of practical know-how. SmartHome Germany also helps to develop innovative products and services. The association provides free advice to craftsmen, architects and consumers at trade fairs and public fairs. A database with certified specialist companies for networked building technology serves construction enthusiasts in the selection of implementation partners with proven competence.
