Welcome to LEDs Magazine’s News & Insights for Dec. 6, 2023. Straight away, I want to mention that our third annual BrightStar Awards program is open for submissions. You’ll find an announcement below that provides more details on the program and links to the submission platform and relevant product categories. Get your entries completed before Dec. 29 for the Early Bird savings.

Second on my to-do list is to let our newsletter subscribers know about changes to our 2024 lineup. Your weekly News & Insights and other LEDs Magazine newsletters will feature a streamlined format that does not include these missives at the top. It is our goal to get you straight to the news and articles in the newsletter body. We will still feature blog posts that comment on industry issues, events, and resources available to the LED and SSL community.

Please stay in touch about content we publish and to propose contributed articles.
