Interviews + Opinion

I recently had the opportunity to interview Mark Lien, LC, HBDP, CLMC, CLEP, LEED BD&C, Industry Relations Manager, Illuminating Engineering Society, about where things stand right now and possibly in the future for the Internet of Things. (Mark was speaking for himself, not the IES.) The responses helped inform an article I wrote about the IoT for the December 2018 issue of ELECTRICAL CONTRACTOR.

Over the past month, I had an interesting conversation with some big thinkers in the lighting industry about lighting and the Internet of Things. Here’s what they had to say.
