You cannot imagine building technology without the latest systems integration and networking by means of modern bus-technologies such as LonWorks, EIB and BacNet. Indeed, the very fact that Light + Building embraces all technologies, bringing together the sectors of electro-technology, lighting, house and building automation under one roof promotes systems integration in building technology. What is more, Light + Building does more than just create the right environment for optimal interaction. It also encourages new perspectives and ideas amongst suppliers, retailers and users.

At present the main focus is on the business sectors of security and network technology. In specific terms these are two market segments with a large potential for you to secure orders and increase turnover. You should profit from them.

Likewise, it has long been standard practice to incorporate modern communications technology within a building. The optimal integration of building automation as well as data and voice communication is a pre-requisite for future-enabled total system solutions. Network technology acts as a section that overlaps the individual disciplines, particularly with respect to electrical installation. The trend is moving towards buildings with high technical functionality. The current demands facing electrical contractors include glass fibre cabling or upgrading of the telecommunications systems in office buildings. This subject is equally relevant to designers in their role of influencing investment decisions.
