Last week, the 2024 edition of the IALD Enlighten Europe conference took place in Shoreditch, London. The highly anticipated event brought together hundreds of lighting professionals and leading industry members for two days of lectures, round-tables and interactive workshops on the hot topics from the industry’s top researchers.

A total of 24 presentations were delivered including a key note presentation on the opening morning from Dr. Marco Bevolo – a leading researcher and Adjunct Professor of Design Futures at the World University of Design, India. In his keynote address, “The Future of Lighting Design Beyond Lighting Design,” Dr. Bevolo addressed emerging industry trends and provided a framework for urban futures and lighting design. He offered invaluable insights on how designers can appropriately integrate AI into the design process.

In addition to the conference sessions, the event featured excellent hospitality and social activities, including a boat party along the Thames, organised by LEDFlex Group.
