While being involved in these organizations, adaptiv.io will focus on expanding the market opportunity and shaping its product offering to include connected devices.
David Lee, CEO and co-founder of adaptiv.io, said: “We live in a very exciting time where an ever increasing number of consumers and devices are ‘getting connected’ in the digital home.

Our belief is that this data can and should be utilized to provide customized experiences and functionality to enhance consumer lifestyles and devices, respectively.”
adaptiv.io has succeeded as an industry leader for over 8 years in game development technology and operations, and now continues with a renewed focus on marketing data automation. The company continually adapts to the perpetually changing landscape of the Internet, the advent of new technologies and the bridge to the more traditional offline side of businesses. Lee continued, “While there are roughly five main groups vying to lead the ‘Internet of things’ standards, we feel by being members of the Industrial Internet Consortium and the Thread Group that we are taking part in very strong and influential consortiums, backed by companies leading the way in how connected devices will play a role in the future of our increasingly digital lifestyles.”
Dr. Richard Mark Soley, Executive Director of Industrial Internet Consortium, said: “We’re pleased to welcome adaptiv.io into the Industrial Internet Consortium as this will increase our ability to provide connectivity, management and location identification for devices in the home and across industries, and increase the availability of marketing automation for the public good.”
Chris Boross, president of the Thread Group, said: “We developed Thread to provide an easy and secure way for product developers and consumers to connect products in the home to each other and directly to the cloud. We’re delighted that adaptive.io will join our efforts to establish Thread as the most widely-adopted protocol powering the next generation of the connected home.”
