Close the door of the fireplace, it’s the start of a new week and it’s time to scale up.

Can data revolutionize how homeowners manage and maintain their property?

This week on Dirt Work, host Adam Morrisey sat down with a start up out of Austin texas that is aiming to use AI & IoT to make the home less expensive and demanding to own.

As we exit the era of the pandemic, we are at a philosophical cross roads on the future of workspaces.

This week on Digital Directions, Radiant Technology Group’s Doug Freutel discusses trends for leveraging digital signage to create future flexible workspaces in this first of a two-part discussion.

Every industry the world over is feeling the effects of innovative IoT solutions, and the restaurant and hospitality sectors are certainly no exception.

Intel’s Orietta Verdugo joins To the Edge and Beyond to outline how intel is committing to elevate and personalize the guest experience in the restaurant and hospitality landscape, from drive-thrus to five-star overnight stays.

Today more than ever, Merchants need a partner they can rely on.
