The Strategies in Light 2021 conference and trade show — with the theme of “Connecting the World of Light” — will open Aug. 24-26 (moved from June) at the convention center in Santa Clara, Calif., where the show began more than 20 years ago. It connects professionals in the technology, lighting and the built environment industries, providing a platform for information exchange, collaboration and networking.
The COVID-19 pandemic has forced the world to rethink how we are interacting — and show organizers are responding. Strategies in Light 2021 will feature a new layered virtual component in conjunction with the live event to provide attendees and exhibitors with an online, interactive way to participate in the event. Attendees will have access to some of the content presented at the show pre, during, and post-show.
Attendees will have time for networking at the welcome reception, the networking reception and coffee and lunch breaks on the exhibit floor — and the Sapphire Awards, which recognizes the contributions of the LED and solid-state lighting supply chain in producing high-performance, quality engineered components and systems into the commercial distribution stream. This year’s award ceremony takes place Aug. 23.
The conference program offers lighting and building professionals a variety of workshops and keynote speeches focused on emerging technologies; design and development; manufacturing; application; design and specification, installation and construction; and operations and maintenance.
