Exhibiting companies actively responded to the exhibition's theme of "Integration of Technological Innovation, Intelligent and Green Quality Improvement," expressing their commitment to using the CLITI exhibition as a platform to showcase technological innovation achievements and innovative models in the lighting industry, leading high-quality industry development. The China Lighting Association has collected views from CLITI exhibitors on how lighting companies can achieve technological innovation, hoping these insights will help businesses broaden their development horizons, understand the latest industry trends, and find new development opportunities through participation in the CLITI exhibition, achieving more win-win cooperation. Today, we share the perspectives of representatives from participating companies such as Tongshida and Insona on achieving technological innovation in lighting enterprises.

In terms of technological innovation, smart lighting products are a major trend. By applying technologies such as AI, big data, the Internet of Things, cloud computing, and blockchain, we can enhance the multifunctionality, added value, and service levels of lighting products. For enterprises to achieve technological innovation, I believe several key elements are required:

First is financial support. Innovation requires strong R&D investment, the introduction of advanced technologies, and advanced R&D testing equipment.

Secondly, organizational support. An efficient organization is the foundation of innovation. Enterprises can establish innovation task forces or R&D departments and implement innovation incentive mechanisms.

Third is talent assurance. Talent is the key to innovation, and we must strengthen the cultivation of innovative talents and the introduction of professional and technical personnel.

Fourth, seek strategic partners. Achieve invention and innovation through cross-industry exchanges or collaborations.

Traditional lighting mainly focuses on manufacturing and sales, but smart lighting requires expanding business from a service perspective. The traditional lighting industry process is relatively short, with practitioners focusing only on production and sales. However, smart lighting extends the industry process; in addition to production and sales, it also needs to provide users with services beyond products, such as installation, maintenance and debugging, and system integration.

Strictly speaking, the biggest difference between traditional lighting and smart lighting is the transformation of the industry model: one is retail, the other is service. I believe that the transformation and upgrading of the lighting industry means shifting from traditional retail to services. Industry innovation should start more from the market demand side, enabling products to serve a wider range of market needs.
