Tarek Zakaria, Head KNX Building Automation UAE / Southern Gulf
ERCO is excited to be part of the first ever Light Middle East awards. It is a perfect opportunity for designers and consultants to not only showcase their lighting designs but also to be celebrated for the amazing contributions they have made to projects within the region. The awards also provide us with the opportunity to offer our support to the Middle East design community and we look forward to a continued involvement with them on their future projects.
Murray Cameron, Regional Manager Middle East for ERCO Lighting Pte. Ltd
There has been no such platform in the region for recognising excellent work in lighting design. The Light Middle East awards will fill this void and award outstanding projects from across the region. This will be a great way to encourage further innovation and forward thinking in lighting design and will also serve to make case studies on regional best practices available in the market.
Ahmed Abdulla Alsalami, Head of Building Systems Development Unit, Qualification & Building Studies Section, Building Department, Dubai Municipality
