Los Angeles, Sept. 13, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Tuya Smart, the world’s leading AIoT (AI+IoT) platform, has just announced their Global Brand Empowering Project. With the aim of bringing internet connectivity to mainstream B2C brands that would otherwise not have the technological know-how to transform their products into smart home compatible devices, Tuya Smart is continuing its mission to help more than 10,000 enterprises make their services and products smarter across the globe.
Tuya is kicking off strategic collaboration with American, German, Spanish and Italian manufacturers, OEMs and brands, to create a “Powered by Tuya” label that will turn traditional consumer electronic brands into leading references in the AI+IOT industry. Tuya Smart is already collaborating with brands such as TCL and recently announced a new partnership with French multinational electronics company Archos.
