Welcome to LEDs Magazine’s Focus On LEDs in Lighting newsletter for July 27, 2023. Our featured story in this issue is from our “Profiles in Lighting” series where we get to know a lighting or controls manufacturer, designer, firm, or researcher in more depth. Sometimes the answers to our questions surprise me, and I’ve enjoyed learning more from these professionals over the past year. The Lighting Quotient is one that sparked interest when I attended LEDucation earlier this year. It started out as a lighting design firm and then added on its manufacturing capabilities to bring high-quality architectural lighting options to market. Please don’t hesitate to reach out with suggestions on firms or individuals who you think merit more exposure in the market for their unique perspective, offerings, business models, or body of work.

Also in this issue:

  • New technology from Lumileds puts dark skies first for lighting product developers.
  • Glamox adds to its industrial marine lighting customer base with a wind-energy substation project.
  • Fagerhult has seen a bit of a slide in net profits, but sales and operations remain strong.
  • Plus case studies from our website and lighting design tips from our colleagues at Architectural SSL

Please stay in touch about content we publish and to propose contributed articles.
