Resideo Technologies, Inc., a global provider of critical comfort and security solutions primarily in residential environments, announced a strategic agreement with GOME Telecom Equipment Co., Ltd., a key member of the GOME Group. The cooperation agreement will combine Resideo's extensive technical expertise in smart homes with GOME’s distribution capabilities in China’s retail market to deliver high-quality smart-home products and services throughout the country.
Household-products manufacturing is a 3 trillion RMB industry in China. It also is an industry in which artificial intelligence and the Internet of Things find rapid and meaningful application. As a result of this, smart homes are set to boom in China. Resideo has responded to the needs of local customers by providing tailor-made solutions suitable for smart control both inside and outside of a residence. This echoes GOME's vision of “providing smart devices and complete solutions for individuals, families and businesses.”
