Lighting isn’t just lighting anymore. It’s taking on a whole new role in our cities, homes, streets and offices as the conduit to and from the Internet of Things. If you thought the transition to LED was rapid, brace yourself for the race to connected lighting – one of today’s most rapidly developing technologies. To help you stay on top of breaking news, innovation and emerging standards, this page connects you to our thought leaders and provides a curated selection of relevant resources.

According to Gartner, “Intelligent streetlights will be one of the most valuable pieces of real estate in the city.”[1] But if that’s the case, most cities are still in the dark. Many authorities don’t know how many street lights they operate, at what power level and which types.

Or been inside a building during the day and wondered why every single light is on, yet the space is filled with sunlight? It’s not a small problem. Wasted energy is hugely expensive for homes, businesses, governments, and the planet. And yet the solution is remarkably simple.
