LED Taiwan 2016 to Kick Off in Taipei
Mar 18, 2016
The most influential LED exhibition in Taiwan that helps business expands connections and grabs opportunities
LED Taiwan, the most influential LED exhibition in Taiwan that is organized by SEMI and the Taiwan External Trade Development Council (TAITRA), will be held at TWTC Nangang Exhibition Hall in Taipei on April 13-16. As the LED market is stabilizing and the growth becomes modest, vendors in the industry continue to invest in technology R&D as part of their efforts to stand out amid a pricing war of end products. In line with current key issues in the industry, this year’s event will feature five theme pavilions, several industry forums and the TechSTAGE. The Taiwan International Lighting Show (TiLS) will also be held during at the same period of time. Total 700 booths are expected to attract over 20,000 visitors.
Research firm LEDinside estimated that the value of the global high-brightness LED market will increase 3% YoY in 2016. Despite the modest outlook, prospects still look good for niche applications in IR LED or UV LED, and may even become the main growth driver in the market. In LED lighting, the market reached US$25.7 billion of revenue in 2015 with a penetration rate at 31%. The numbers are expected to increase to US$30.5 billion and 36%, respectively, in 2016.
Integration of resources helps boost local LED industry’s global presence
LED Taiwan is made possible with the collaboration and resources from influential organizations in the industry, including SEMI, TAITRA, the Taiwan Lighting Fixture Export Association and the Taiwan Optoelectronic Semiconductor Industry Association. Each year, foreign buyers and leading manufacturers are invited to the exposition where various business matching events, forums and meetings are arranged to help Taiwan vendors expand connections and secure business opportunities by interacting with the elite members of foreign industrial and academic circles.
Five theme pavilions to meet all the needs of the entire industry chain
In addition to the existing pavilions of “High-Brightness LED” and “Sapphire”, LED Taiwan 2016 expands three more pavilions for “LED Components”, “Smart Lighting Technology” and “Power Device”, also invited international leading companies: Aurora Optoelectronics, Cree, Epileds, Epistar, Lextar, MLS, and Rubicon to demonstrate on show floor to help visitors explore the latest moves and trends in the market to increase their global competitiveness.
