TECHNOLOGY / THE ARC SHOW, LONDON 119
ALL PARTY SUPPORT
As well as the IALD, the UK’s other lighting associations will be involved at The ARC Show, ensuring that all sub-sectors are catered for…
• The ILE – The Institution of Lighting Engineers will present a series of free technical seminars designed specifically for lighting engineers, consultants and design-
ers. The presentations will consider current trends, as well as social and political impacts on lighting design. Confirmed topics include ‘Light: A Social Revolution’,
which will champion light as a method to help improve the public realm associated with social housing.
• The SLL – The Society of Light and Lighting, who represent the interests of those involved in the art, science and engineering of light and lighting, will be holding
the final of the prestigious Young Lighter of the Year competition at the show.”
• The LIF – The Lighting Industry Federation will present informative seminars about trends in lighting technology and regulation in manufacturing for lighting
