(UAE) – arc’s Editor, Matt Waring, will represent [d]arc media at Light + Intelligent Building Middle East. As part of the programme, Waring will moderate two sessions on the InSpotlight Stage, contributing to discussions around professional practice and lighting design culture.

In the first session, Waring will host a panel discussion focused on multidisciplinary approaches to mentorship, collaboration and technical excellence. The panel brings together Kristina Allison (SLL), Jared Smith (CBCL), Robert White (Illuminart) and Majeed Uz Zafer (Light Factor), who will share perspectives from across lighting, engineering and the built environment.

The second session will see Waring in conversation with lighting designer Michael Grubb. The discussion will centre on Grubb’s recent book, Stories With Light, exploring the ideas behind its creation, the development process and its reception since publication six months ago.

Light + Intelligent Building Middle East brings together professionals from across lighting, architecture and building technologies, and serves as a platform for dialogue on design, innovation and industry practice within the region and beyond. The talks are free to attend for all those registered to visit the show.
