DVN Shanghai Workshop Docket
The fourth DVN Shanghai Workshop will take place on 24–25 April at the Marriott Shanghai Parkview Hotel, with the rubric Lighting Technology Evolution: New AV Functions and Impact on Regulation. The event will bring together around 400 participants from around the world, including directors, managers, experts, researchers, practitioners, and technicians. It will be a grand platform for digital lighting technologies with applications like ADB/glare-free high beam, projection lighting, and new AV light functions. The regulation session will address the challenges faced by the global industry to innovate for improved safety. It will cover the status of work and progress on the two-stage GRE project to simplify the regulations, as well as the plan of the Chinese Government to simplify their own GB standards by 2020.
An exceptional roster of international and Asian guests and speakers will attend, from all across our global lighting community. Discussion panels, 27 expo booths, and two private demo rooms will facilitate productive exchange and fruitful networking. Tens of suppliers dealing with materials, actuators, lenses, components, manufacturing processes, simulation, and measurement tools will be present.
Online registration makes it quick and easy, but registration will close as soon as the expected attendance has reached 400 people. Spaces are filling up fast, so don’t wait or it will be too late.
