This episode of the Mecca Minute takes a look at the future promise of IoT.

While he may not be a fan of the acronym, [Gerry Mecca](https://marketscale.com/industries/food-and-beverage/marketscale-mornings-gerry-mecca-on-the-evolution-of-it-in-business/) acknowledges that IoT holds the potential to radically alter our lives. He hones in on the ways that this vast network would be able to improve the living conditions in our homes.

Could we have smarter doorknobs that prevent break ins and homes that are even more adaptable when it comes to the weather and temperature? It’s all coming in the future thanks to IoT.

Gerry Mecca is currently with The EKG Group and as the former VP of IT at [Keurig Dr. Pepper](https://www.drpepper.com/en).
