This session will go wide and deep— ranging from devices, protocols, and networks all the way to the full ecosystem of opportunities in the decarbonization era. Based on a series of recent interviews with personas beyond the lighting industry, I will share their perspectives about lighting. Interoperability, digitization, and future proofing are the keys to getting our share of tomorrow’s opportunities. In today’s market the expectations, criteria for success, and financial ROI’s have significantly changed. It’s time to have ourselves a “courageous conversation,” and see if we can get out of our own way to get a seat at the grown-up’s table.
