LEDs Magazine Announces Sapphire Award Winners

Craig DiLouie March 28, 2017

LEDs Magazine hosted its third annual Sapphire Awards at the Strategies in Light conference in Anaheim, co-located with The LED Show and Lightspace California. This was my first pilgrimage to Strategies in Light, and I found the conference fascinating and valuable, though at this stage of industry disruption, there remain more questions than answers.

A highlight of the conference was the Sapphire Awards, in which LEDs Magazine recognized innovative solid-state lighting products.

Check out the winners here.

Sculpt Accent luminaire from Axis Lighting, which won in the Indoor Ambient, Track, and Accent SSL Luminaire Design category.
