Shining Prospects with New Fair
The future is brighter for buyers in the lighting industry ¡V twice as bright, in fact! Leveraging on the success of the HKTDC Hong Kong International Lighting Fair, which takes place every autumn, a second event has been created, to be staged in April.

This Spring Edition allows more suppliers to reach out to international buyers. It also fills a gap in the marketing calendar, giving buyers the opportunity to assess the latest trends for the coming year and place orders in time for the busy autumn and holiday seasons.

Lighting is a very technology-driven industry, so it is important to keep up with the latest innovations and developments; lighting also plays a key role in interior design and is thus affected by prevailing fashion trends. The Spring Edition works as an effective platform for gathering up-to-date information on the industry.

Buyers will find a comprehensive range of products covering all aspects of the lighting world. Major categories include Crystal Lighting, Green Lighting, Holiday Lighting, Outdoor Lighting, Lighting Accessories & Components and Table Lamps.


Spring into Action
The Spring Edition is slotted into one of the two major buying seasons in the trade fair calendar. It is held concurrently with the HKTDC Hong Kong Electronics Fair (Spring Edition) and the HKTDC Hong Kong International ICT Expo ¡V and, most conveniently, under the same roof. Visitors to the Lighting Fair will find plenty of crossover opportunities in these two fairs, with plenty of incentive to explore new directions.

In addition, the HKTDC Hong Kong Houseware Fair takes place one week later, from 20-23 April ¡V for buyers of lighting for the home and garden in particular, the prospects of meeting new suppliers are numerous. And there is still more! The HKTDC Hong Kong Gifts & Premium Fair, from 27-30 April, also offers sourcing opportunities and inspiration for buyers in the lighting sector.

Switched on buyers will find so many illuminating new ideas in April 2009!
