Adam Lilien, Global Lighting Business Development Manager, Underwriters Laboratories: “The question is why. If Signify purchased Cooper Lighting for talent acquisition, it is a good thing. If they are purchasing the minds that they think will help them get to the next level as the industry transforms, then it was a very smart move.”
Jay Goodman, VP Strategy, healthe, a division of Lighting Science: “Serious Industry Shakeup.”
Chris Brown, CEO, Nextgen Lighting: It raises lots of questions. Is this illumigeddon?!? Who is the winner? What is the message to manufacturers, reps and distributors? What will the union look like in a few years?
