Wearable Tech LA | Where Entertainment & Health Meet Wearables July 17th
Wearables Tech and the Internet of Things (IoT) have been all the latest buzz in the tech world. We just wrapped up our REACH | The Wearable Future event last week where we had Intel, Epson, Indiegogo, LA Times and ShotTracker discuss where wearables have been, where they are now and what is the future of wearables. You can find pictures from the night here. Wrap up post and video coming soon.
According to International Data Corporation, wearables will be the fastest-emerging category and become a $12B industry in 2018. Attending Wearable Tech LA on July 17th in Pasadena will give you an opportunity to meet and collaborate with the best of Hollywood, Music, Sports and Health including leaders from the NBA, NFL, NHL and others.
