The first annual Lighting Industry Awards, coordinated by the Lighting Association were presented at a gala dinner on 14th July. Industry peers from government, energy companies and universities examined the entries to decide the final winners. Amongst high profile finalists were global names such as Osram and Havells Sylvania, however the biggest winner was the UK based LED luminaire manufacturer PhotonStar LED Ltd. who were finalists in almost all sections , and were the only company to win more than one award.
Dr. James McKenzie, co-founder and CEO had been invited to present A year in LEDs at the Lighting Association conference running up to the awards. Our technology was up against a number of other market leading and innovative products from all over the world. We were very proud to see our British technology recognised amongst such serious competition for its innovation and value to commercial applications.
