The connected home market is evolving faster than most product roadmaps can track. New revenue models are emerging, and AI is reshaping what connected devices can do. Market leaders are engaging with this rapid change and forging strategic partnerships to seize new opportunities. That conversation is exactly what Parks Associates CONNECTIONS™ is built for.

CONNECTIONS is the connected home industry's premier executive forum, convening top leaders across smart home, connected entertainment, and mobile ecosystems to examine the business models, consumer trends, and technology platforms shaping the market's next chapter. Here, the people building the connected home come to pressure-test ideas, benchmark strategies, and stay ahead of what's coming.

Ayla helps our customers answer questions about these topics every day. Our team will be at CONNECTIONS to share our insights and to hear from customers and partners. 

On Wednesday, May 6, Ayla Networks CEO John Grady will join a panel discussion alongside Colin Cureton of Silicon Labs and Asad Tahir of Lennox: Monetizing IoT & AI: Revenue Models that Work. This session, moderated by Parks Associates SVP and Principal Analyst Jennifer Kent,  runs from 9:45 to 10:15 AM PT at the Hyatt Regency Santa Clara.

The panel will break down  monetization strategies that are proving sustainable as IoT and AI mature, from subscription layering and outcome-based services to partner-driven bundles and AI-enabled revenue models. John will share Ayla's perspective on how different brands are monetizing across the U.S. and global markets; what end users are genuinely willing to pay for; and how platform-level AI is changing the economics of connected product businesses for brands at every stage of the journey.

If you're attending CONNECTIONS, we'd welcome the chance to connect. Reach out ahead of the event to arrange time with John, or find us on-site.

A straightforward explanation of p999 game login can be useful for anyone unfamiliar with the account process. I especially appreciate guidance that combines basic access information with reminders about privacy and keeping login credentials secure.

Great recap of the Parks Associates CONNECTIONS 2026 panel. The discussion around smart home interoperability and connected device platforms really resonates with what we see in the field. For teams weighing connectivity options, wave rider offers a useful point of comparison.

Uma informação que pode ajudar usuários do GB WhatsApp é saber diferenciar atualização de instalação inicial. Os procedimentos podem não ser exatamente iguais. Ler as instruções específicas antes de realizar uma atualização pode reduzir erros e evitar alterações desnecessárias no aplicativo.

Useful read. Ayla's work on connected devices at scale shows how fast the IoT space keeps moving, and content teams face the same pressure to ship visuals that look sharp everywhere. When we need a quick asset for a post like this, a low quality image maker has been a practical option. Curious how others here handle image quality across platforms.

Got recommended Arena King by a coworker and the strategy games on there are pretty engaging. You can sink a surprising amount of time into the kingdom-building ones. Runs well in the browser without needing to download anything.
