APX Labs named Technology Pioneer by World Economic Forum
AREA member APX Labs has been announced by the World Economic Forum as one of its Technology Pioneers at the Annual Meeting of the New Champions in Tianjin, People’s Republic of China on June 27, 2016. The company was one of 30 selected for their potential to significantly impact business and society via new technologies and their ability to advance the “Fourth Industrial Revolution.”
The APX Labs Skylight product was selected for its ability to modernize and upskill the global industrial workforce.
