Smart home technology is evolving and booming. Global smart home market revenue is expected to reach a value of more than $141 billion (USD) by 2023, according to Statista. The number of smart homes is expected to surpass the 300 million mark in the same span.

As more tools become available to make your dwelling the home of the future, you’ll likely need additional guidance and encouragement. Likely, you find yourself wondering what “works with” what.

That will be the focus of Silicon Labs’ Work With virtual conference Sept. 9-10. Industry leaders, hardware engineers, application designers, and developers will engage in technical training with beginner to advanced participants. Speakers will lead 25 workshops and breakout sessions on Bluetooth®, Wi-Fi, Thread, ZigBee®, or Z-Wave technology while training smart-home engineers and developers on integrating products with any hub or smart-home ecosystem.

Participants can meet virtually with developers while accessing videos, additional broadcasts, and tips and tricks. Click here to register.
