Sustainability Unfiltered: A Sustainable Specification Series - Edinburgh

Think you've heard it all before? Ready to move on to something new?

Sustainability is no trend. It's a defining challenge for our industry.

The Society of Light and Lighting and The Lighting Industry Association join forces to present Sustainability Unfiltered: a new event series repeated in Manchester, London and Edinburgh.

Moving beyond sustainability statements and into meaningful action, Sustainability Unfiltered cuts through the buzzwords to explore the realities, challenges and opportunities shaping sustainable lighting today.

Hear from leading voices in sustainability, engage with forward-thinking lighting manufacturers and understand your important influence as a designer and specifier.

Join us for a sustainability reality check. Challenge assumptions, uncover what really makes a difference and discover how lighting professionals can help shape a more sustainable future.
