Derek Publicover, GM of Retail, took the stage in front of a packed house to discuss how Current’s intelligent environments could improve a multitude of business metrics from energy efficiency to employee productivity.

It’s opening a new world of digital productivity applications that are providing new insights and analytical capabilities.
