This international business symposium proved to be a major meeting place for the lighting and visuals industry. In addition to lectures by like Patrick Woodroffe, Rick Fisher, Manfred Olma, and Jürgen Schmidt-André, scores of guests from theatres, TV, concert touring and live events came to Paderborn to share the Open Days experience which took place in the Heinz Nixdorf Museums Forum.
As well as interesting lectures and informative seminars, all guests were able to get an insight into the latest developments in the fields of control, video, dimming, networking, moving lights, spot lights, follow spots, LED sources, trussing, clamps, custom-made products, power supplies, gel strings and numerous effects. All of Lightpower's major partners were also in the focus with their products.
Lightpower's managing director Ralph-Jörg Wezorke reports, "These sixth Open Days were our best to date. Although past Open Days in the last 20 years have been highly acclaimed, the latest event was ground-breaking. The international press as well as the contributors and guests all agreed that Lightpower Open Days are a leading business forum. They offer a convergence of ideas from designers, technicians and manufacturers, creating a unique chemistry not found anywhere else.
"This cultivates a valuable information exchange and provides inspiration and motivation that our guests can utilise for their daily work. The whole event was organised by the Lightpower company team, who created an atmosphere that everyone was very happy to be part of, emphasising the fact that we love what we do. I'm very proud of this team."
