CARLSBAD, Calif., Jan. 8, 2023 – Nice, a global leader in Home and Building Management solutions, is proud to announce the HR40 Multifunction Remote Control was recognized as a 2024 CES Innovation Award Honoree. To reinforce the importance of innovation and transformation in smart home technology, Paul Williams, Managing Director of Home Management Business Unit, will discuss evolving product strategies during a panel discussion at Parks Associates’ CONNECTIONS Summit at CES. This year’s participation in CES underscores the company’s commitment to advancing its Home and Building Management solutions to set the industry standard for home automation.

It has been a year of transformation and growth for Nice as the company focused on expanding its footprint in North America by converging its robust product portfolio under one unified brand. This year’s transition of ELAN®, SpeakerCraft®, and Panamax® Energy Management, resulted in the launch of numerous award-winning products including the HR40 remote, Sun Shades by Nice, Nice DC12-IP Smart DC Power Manager, Nice Home Management OS 8.8, among others. In 2024, Nice will begin its next phase of rebranding with the convergence of Linear Access and Surveillance. Through the consolidation of these brands, Nice aims to offer a more holistic and advanced selection of whole home management solutions to accelerate the integration of smart home technology.

"It’s been an exciting year for Nice," said Paul Williams, Managing Director of the Home Management Business Unit at Nice. "Not only did we unify our existing brand and product lines but we also showcased the innovation and industrial design principles from Nice that will drive future growth as we continue expansion of our smart home portfolio. The creation of the Home Management Business Unit also lays the foundation for global synergies and more advanced, integrated solutions in 2024 and beyond."

On January 9 at 4:00 p.m. PST, Paul will participate in the Parks Associates’ CONNECTIONS Summit to discuss how companies are pivoting their product strategies to drive broader adoption of home automation solutions.
