This event was organised by LightingEurope, the association representing Europe’s lighting industry in Brussels, on 20 March at Light + Building, Frankfurt.

The event was open to the public with the aim for the audience to hear directly from the EU lawmakers in Brussels: what products can be supplied on the EU market, what requirements do these products have to satisfy, how are EU policies impacting trends in lighting?
