EDA leads UK delegation to Light + Building Frankfurt 2024

A large group of senior wholesalers and representatives from trade associations along the supply chain joined an EDA-led UK delegation to Frankfurt’s Light + Building 2024, the world’s leading trade fair for lighting and building services technology.

Margaret Fitzsimons, CEO at the EDA, said, “Light + Building is an international meeting place where innovators and visionaries show us the future of the electrotechnical sector, and there is simply nothing of this scale and ambition in the UK. Our delegates represent billions of pounds of purchasing power and we’ve planned an itinerary that packs in opportunities to talk business and share ideas with our affiliate manufacturers either through exhibition stand tours or at networking events that we’ve planned in and around our two-day visit.

“Interests overlap and collaboration along the supply chain is vital, which is why we have invited representatives from the other trade associations with whom we work closely, to join our delegation: with us in Frankfurt are leaders from Cable Makers UK Ltd (BCA), the ECA and their counterparts at SELECT, BEAMA, and the Lighting Industry Association (LIA).”

This is the EDA’s second delegation to Light + Building, having visited previously in 2018.
