2019 Show Theme
The last edition of the show emphasised the importance of embracing change in the lighting industry, whether that be in the shape of smart and connected lighting, LED miniaturisation or even human-centric lighting. The lighting supply chain is also undergoing change with the growth of smart lighting and IoT applications as software developers, electronic engineers and lighting manufacturers begin to collaborate and analyse the facets of the end-user product together.
New digital technologies are transforming the lighting industry and ‘disruption’ has been a key talking point among industry players. The theme of Guangzhou International Lighting Exhibition 2019 (GILE) – THINKLIGHT: Envisage The Next Move – aims to encourage the the lighting community to see the changes as a means of progression and innovation.
