ATLANTA, Sept. 5, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Steve Latham, founder and chief executive officer of Banyan Hills Technologies, has been selected by the Technology Association of Georgia (TAG) to appear in the organization's 2018 IoT/Cloud Technology: Georgia Game Changers list. The list is featured in the IoT Converge issue of TAG's publication, Hub Magazine.
Hub Magazine's Game Changers list features innovators whose leadership is driving the Peach State's IoT/Cloud technology ecosystem to new heights.
Latham was chosen for the honor after spearheading the release of Banyan's IoT platform, Canopy™, accelerating disruptive innovation across a wide range of industries including self-service kiosks, self-storage, sports & entertainment, financial technology (FinTech), and unattended retail.

Performance data is visualized through a single intuitive interface, allowing operators to maintain visibility and make corrective actions remotely. With Canopy, businesses gain real-time data collection, automated operations, and rich analytics. In turn, they can reduce costs, realize new revenue opportunities, and enhance end-user experiences.
In addition to his work at Banyan Hills Technologies, Latham is committed to helping accelerate innovations in the Greater Atlanta tech arena through his involvement in the Gwinnett County Chamber of Commerce and at Georgia State University. In the nonprofit sector, Steve and the team at Banyan Hills Technologies have supported the Lanier Community Garden Project, a food bank gardening project maintained by volunteers, and Pride for Parents, a program designed to provide the families the opportunity to shop during the holidays for gifts at significantly reduced costs. Banyan makes annual donations to a variety of charities for their employees' anniversary milestones.
"I'm honored to be recognized on TAG's IoT/Cloud Technology: Georgia Game Changers list," said Latham. "Banyan maintains a commitment to being active in our neighboring communities, with Atlanta being our focal point. We are passionate about empowering companies to get the most out of their IoT strategies and we take great pride in being recognized for these contributions. I'm forever grateful to our employees and our customers, and am dedicated to making Atlanta a hub for IoT and Cloud innovations."
