See You In NYC!

Update for the week of February 23, 2023

LEDucation is almost here! The conference takes place March 7th & 8th at the New York Hilton Midtown. Let us help you make the most of it.

Last we checked, there are more than 380 lighting and controls brands exhibiting at this year’s show. That’s a lot! If you’re traveling to Midtown Manhattan for LEDucation and you’re not sure how to budget your time at the conference, we completely get it. And we’re here to help!

Archetype Lighting is a San Francisco-based manufacturers representative that really does work with a curated selection of brands. If we represent it, it’s extraordinary and worth your time. That’s our promise.

SO, if you’re headed to LEDucation, we definitely recommend that you prioritize visiting the exhibitors below, regardless of the territory where you operate.

Please note that Archetype serves Northern California and Hawaii. If you’re a trade professional who operates in either (or both) of these territories, we’re here to help you bring these brands to your ongoing and future design and construction projects. Contact us: info@archetypelighting.com.

In the list below, we’ve denoted the LEDucation booth where you’ll find each exhibiting brand, and we’ve denoted the specific territory where we represent each one. Check it out!

And we’ll be there, too!

That’s right! Archetype’s leadership will be flying to NYC to experience the magic. If you’re a trade professional from either Northern California or Hawaii, we absolutely want to say hello! Look for Amber and John while you’re at LEDucation, or, even better–message them on LinkedIn to arrange a time to meet up for a tour of the extraordinary brands that will be exhibiting at the tradeshow.

Wait . . . What’s LEDucation??

LEDucation is a multi-day, annual solid-state lighting tradeshow hosted by the Designers Lighting Forum of New York. While registration costs money, it’s really affordable, and LEDucation is a non-profit event. Proceeds go toward grants, scholarships and other programs that advance the lighting industry. Learn More.

Our brands and our specifiers both love this tradeshow, and so do we! Trade professionals travel from all over the United States to attend, and our Northern California and Hawaii specifiers frequently tell us it’s worth the trip to NYC.

Though the show is definitely more focused on architectural lighting, you’ll find some incredible decorative brands on display there as well. IM Design Concepts, for example, will be there representing several big names in decorative lighting–and we have it on good authority that Boyd Lighting will be revealing an entirely new decorative collection at the show. The variety of exhibitors is part of what makes this show so worthwhile. Whether you’re an interior designer, a landscape architect or a lighting engineer, you’re going to find loads of things you love.

If you haven’t registered yet, but love lighting and want to make the trip out to Manhattan March 7-8, you can register for LEDucation here. Pro tip: You save a bit if you register in advance.
