Academic Forum 2013

On 14 May 2013, PhD students met to focus on daylight, its effects on people and the environment. The students spent a day together with allocated experts/mentors and with sufficient time for sharing new ideas and methods, to review and discus and – most importantly – to meet fellow students and create a community among PhD students across Europe.

Since the first VELUX Daylight Academic Forum in 2011, other conferences and fora have been established – to ensure and strengthen the dialogue with the next generation of lighting researchers.

“This adds to the ample reasons for optimism about lighting’s bright future in our buildings and communities, as an industry and as part of the fabric of society.” (J. Veitch, Lighting Res. Technol. 2011, 43, 4).
