Best Buy Introduces New Smart Home Category
 

The leading retailer in the distribution of Smart Home products has recently unveiled a new addition to its smart home lineup, Smart Shades.

There are A LOT of windows out there, and with only a small 10% of them being automated, this is a market that’s already worth billions with projected double-digit growth for the next decade!

Recognizing this, Best Buy has made a huge bet on an innovative startup and has already stocked its product in over 100 retail stores. This up-and-comer is RYSE, and for a limited time, you can invest in its vision of owning the Smart Shades industry.

Best Buy made similar bets on smart-home titans Ring and Nest, both of which saw billion-dollar exits at the hands of Amazon and Google.

Looking to follow in their footsteps, RYSE’s share price has grown by over 20X since it was founded, and there is significant room for growth as it capitalizes on the increasing demand for its patented tech.
