On their first European tour together, OSRAM and Siemens have demonstrated that modern LED technology is highly efficient, flexible and creative. Targeted at electricians, lighting designers and architects, the events were full of interesting information on LED applications in shop, office and hospitality lighting. Moreover, innovations in building automation were also part of the tour. With the help of product exhibitions and four expert forums, the guests could gain detailed knowledge on the topics of basic LED know-how, lighting design with LEDs, lighting control and building services engineering.
In the organization of the Building KnowLEDge Tour, the professional guest management of SELECTID was a perfect complement to the general event management expertise of Löhr & Partner and has proven its worth in a total of 12 different countries. Starting with the kick-off in Munich, the event series toured through 8 other German cities and 12 European metropolises, among them Paris, Barcelona, Brussels, Copenhagen, Warsaw und Milan.
