NACSA Co-host: 2011 Silicon-Valley LED Lighting Summit – Opportunity and Challenges
The energy inefficient, 100-year-old incandescent light bulbs are phasing out dramatically. The more stringent set on the energy-efficiency will require the more innovative technology for lighting at the entire industry. All those have been certainly boosted the market for LED lighting products and business. As an emerging industry, LED lighting provides the great business opportunities for LED enterprises. In Silicon-valley, the center place of innovation, many companies have been started and been successfully grown fast in the different area of LED market, such as LedEngin (LED package), InteMatix(Phosphor ), iWatt( LED driver IC), Bridgelux ( LED chips) and more.
Jointly organized by NACSA and CAISS, the “2011 Silicon-valley LED lighting Technical Summit” enables face-face discussions with the pioneer of LED industry and helps to explore the market opportunities and technology breakthrough including LED Chips, packages and thermal, Optic , Phosphor and driver.
The Summit is in the form of round-table discussion. Seats are limited. NACSA and CAISS welcome those who are serious about learning and starting business in LED industry.
