The Zigbee Alliance has announced its newly launched Europe Interest Group. Comprised of volunteer members with a shared focus on topics relating to Alliance technologies and the European market—including the Connected Home over IP project—the new Interest Group is designed to facilitate conversations and collaboration among members to strengthen Zigbee Alliance standards globally.
Membership is open to all Zigbee Alliance Participants and Promoters. The group is chaired by Alliance Board Member and IoT Architect Ulf Axelsson of IKEA Home smart, and the Europe Interest Group will bring a European voice more formally into the standards work within the Alliance.
