Earlier this month the LMCA team attended the International Home and Housewares Show in Chicago. The event showcased the latest trends and innovations happening in the industry and what we can expect to see on store shelves in the near future. With smart devices already changing the way we live and work, there are huge opportunities for brands to evolve their businesses by expanding into connected devices for the home. Here is a look at some of the innovative technologies we saw at the show that are emerging in the home and houseware space:

Every day new smart devices are being introduced into our everyday lives. As this trend continues to grow and evolve, one way brands can look to keep ahead of advancing innovations in the industry is through strategic brand licensing. Through licensing, brands can partner with top-line manufacturers and businesses that are at the forefront of developing new and innovative smart devices and in turn, grow their revenue, increase their customer base and bring innovative products to market faster and more resourcefully. |
