I think the lighting Podcasts have been a great way for me to expand on my lighting knowledge, with a diverse range of speakers. I think most Lighting Distributors truly want to help their customers improve lighting. Dr. Figueiro’s presentation about the importance of vertical and quantity of light was very informative and I think it will help our company provide a better value of service to our retirement and assisted living clients! Well done Michael, Greg, and Dr. Figueiro!
