Hello [NAME] Despite the challenges, people still find a way to do business. With that in mind, we are delighted to welcome Zennio on board as a sponsor, and start this month with an interview with Vidar Thomassen, head of the newly-set-up Zennio UK. The evolution of smart home products such as WiFi-based lightbulbs is a positive step, but, as with other consumer electronic devices, there is always the danger of obsolescence. Paul Foulkes discusses this issue and explains why KNX, with its backwardly-compatible ethos, is the safe choice. Breathing is something that the pandemic has brought into sharp focus, so Simon Buddle has been looking at the WELL building standard and how it deals with air in particular. He also discusses how KNX can be used in a WELL environment, whether it be in a commercial or residential setting. Whatever we monitor, be it air, humidity, temperature etc, sensors play a crucial role. In his article about using sensors for smarter, more adaptable cities, Cedrik Neike ponders how, as some countries start to ease restrictions on public life, we can go back to ‘normal’ while still maintaining social distancing and feeling safe. It raises the question: do we want to go back to normal - especially in light of recent events? In a change to his usual technical offering, Mark Warburton pays tribute to #BlackLivesMatter and implores us, as an industry, to reflect and take action. We also present you with our top stories, events and resources this month, and if that's not enough, there's plenty more at the website. If you have any news, projects or topics you would like us to consider for publication, do get in touch! - Yasmin Hashmi, Managing Editor ARTICLES
