CEDIA, the global trade association for the residential integration industry, has announced WellCon, a two-day virtual conference covering the many facets of wellness technology.
The conference will be broadcast on Nov. 16-17, 2021 and held in cooperation with RePure, a company that offers both brand agnostic wellness certifications and technology solutions for indoor air and water quality.
WellCon is designed for integrators looking to add wellness solutions to their portfolios as well as those interested in expanding their current wellness offerings. Attendees will have the opportunity to hear from various subject matter experts in the space: fellow integrators, product manufacturers, design consultants, industry press, and more. The sessions will host open dialogues about the current and future states of well-tech.
“Well-Tech is one of the fastest growing technology trends in the residential market, and integrators are the best equipped to implement these products into the home,” says Ian Bryant, senior director strategic partnerships, CEDIA.
“We hope that integrators leave with a better understanding of wellness technology and how they can successfully include it in their business offerings. Well-tech fits right into the consultative model embraced by many in the CI industry, as they pivot from ‘selling tech’ to improving and enhancing customers’ lives in their homes.”
Day one of WellCon will focus on how technology, such as human-centric lighting and indoor air quality solutions, can be incorporated into home automation systems to improve sleep, energy and overall wellbeing. Speakers will explore considerations relating to customer lifestyles, accessibility, and living in place.
Day two will place a greater emphasis on implementing these technology offerings into a business strategy. Panel discussions and presentations will explore case studies, education and certification, commercial well-tech, and the future of wellness technology.
