Experts in the lighting industry will share their knowledge and experience during a variety of seminars throughout the fair period. Topics to be covered include the prospects for the global lighting market, the latest industry standards and requirements for LED products, Hong Kong's accredited testing and certification services and development trends of mature and emerging markets.

Concurrent Events
