What Is Strategies in Light?
Strategie ve světle is the premier LED technology and design conference and exhibition in North America, held annually in San Diego, California. Organised by PennWell — publisher of LEDs Magazine and parent of the renowned market-research firm Strategies Unlimited — it brings together LED chip makers, luminaire manufacturers, architects, engineers and design professionals from across North America and the world.
Co-sponsored by industry giants such as OSRAM and Seoul Semiconductor, the show is dedicated to the fastest-growing segment of luminaire design and LED technology. It combines the Strategie ve světle conference (with a 17-year history) with THE LED SHOW, covering the world’s latest LED products, new technologies and design services. It is a B2B akce pouze pro obchod: Spotřebitelé a návštěvníci mladší 18 let nejsou povoleni a na místě neprobíhá žádný maloobchodní prodej.

Why the North American LED Technology Market Matters
North America is one of the most technology-driven LED markets in the world. Several structural drivers make it worth your attention:
Technology adoption leader
North American buyers were among the first to adopt tunable white, high-CRI, human-centric lighting and smart controls. They expect the latest technology, not just the lowest price.
Strict compliance culture
US buyers expect UL / ETL certification, FCC compliance, Energy Star listings, IES LM-79 / TM-24 reports and IES photometric files. Suppliers who can deliver win the project.
Design & specification driven
North American lighting designers and specifiers write the product into project specifications. Once specified, a product stays on the BOQ for the life of the building.
Retrofit & upgrade cycle
Millions of commercial buildings are being retrofitted from earlier LED generations to tunable white, human-centric lighting and smart controls — a steady, large-scale demand.
Kdo by se měl zúčastnit
Strategies in Light is most useful if you are:
- Výrobci LED komponent a svítidel — benchmarking chips, drivers, optics and thermal solutions from leading suppliers.
- Návrháři a projektanti osvětlení — learning about new technologies, controls and design tools directly from the engineers who create them.
- Dovozci a distributoři — looking for OEM/ODM brands, private-label programs and factory-direct pricing for the North American market.
- Electrical engineers and contractors — understanding dimming, controls and compliance for commercial projects.
- Majitelé značek a produktoví manažeři — scouting contract manufacturers and benchmarking technology and pricing from Chinese exhibitors.
Jak se připravit jako kupující
Walking the show cold wastes days. Before you fly to San Diego:
1. Plan your conference schedule
The conference program is the main reason to attend. Pick the forums that match your spec — tunable white, human-centric lighting, controls, thermal management — and register early.
2. Předběžně si objednejte schůzky s dodavateli
Pošlete e-mail dodavatelům, které chcete vidět, týdny předem. Přineste vzorky, výkresy, cílové množství a cílové cenové rozpětí – doba stánku je omezená.
3. Compare compliance documents
For the North American market, ask every booth for UL / ETL listing, FCC compliance, IES LM-79 / TM-24 reports and IES photometric files.
4. Po představení jděte přímo ke zdroji
Značky na výstavní ploše obvykle dosahují 30–60 %. Stejné produkty jsou obvykle vyráběny čínskými OEM továrnami. Pořiďte fotografie, čísla dílů a katalogy – poté kontaktujte přímo továrnu.
Why Source LED Lighting from China (and Why Lightstec Makes Sense for North America)
