CABA announced that it has integrated the operations of the Internet Home Alliance, a cross-industry network of leading companies conducting collaborative research to advance the connected home market. Founded in 2000, the alliance provides its members with the real-world testing opportunities required to bring their home technology products and services to market more quickly, successfully and cost-effectively.
Under the new arrangement, IHA's collaborative research program will continue under the CABA umbrella. CABA will establish the Internet Home Alliance Research Council, consisting of IHA and CABA members, which will oversee a wide array of consumer research studies and real-world pilots.
