Ome is excited to announce its participation in the upcoming Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas this January. As highlighted in a recent article by Hypepotamus, Ome is featured among Atlanta's innovative startups heading to CES to showcase cutting-edge technologies.

As a college student bound for med school less than 10 years ago, if someone had told me that my impact in the world would stem from a passion for innovative kitchen technology, I’d surely think they were mistaken. Honestly, I never thought I’d know this much about kitchen anything. And on many days, I do have to keep pinching myself to make sure I’m not dreaming (or having a nightmare, depending on how you view the entrepreneur life).

Purgula, a publication covering all things tech and innovation for home owners, interviewed Ome’s founder and CEO Akshita Iyer about the launch of our next-generation Smart Knob 2.0 — a retrofit device that can transform any gas or electric range or stovetop into a smart appliance to enhance kitchen safety, particularly for elderly adults.

In this Senior Living News piece, we are thrilled to introduce our next-generation Smart Knob to the senior living industry to further serve the aging population, their families and caregivers. Ome’s Smart Knob is designed to address the most critical, unsolved safety concern in the home: unattended cooking — the No. 1 cause of house fires and a danger that disproportionately affects older adults due to mobility or memory challenges.

The launch of our next-gen Ome Smart Knob was covered by KBB, Kitchen & Bath Business, the official publication of KBIS!

But there is a big gap in kitchen safety.

As an Atlanta-based company, we’re thrilled to be featured in the local publication Hypepotamus, the go-to source of startup and technology news in the region!

Ome’s founder and CEO Akshita Iyer was interviewed about the launch of the new Smart Knob and what it took to get to where Ome is today. Akshita shares what makes this new product unique, what new partnerships are on the horizon with senior living facilities and property management groups, and the lessons she learned around finding a trusted manufacturing partner, which is now Atlanta-based East West Manufacturing.
