Nov. 25, 2014: GE and Quirky Announce Connected Home Products
Companies Introduce Multiple New Smart Home Products
NEW YORK — GE and Quirky have unveiled seven new connected home products — including a smart HVAC controller designed to replace thermostats — that are available now on the new Wink.com. At the website, consumers can purchase more than 100 Wink-compatible partner products from 15 brands.
Quirky and GE joined forces last April in a partnership to develop a line of co-branded connected home products. The partnership is said to combine Quirky’s community and platform with GE’s scale and technology. In July of this year, Quirky spun off Wink, a company to bring consumers connected products for the home.
