Cree wins three awards at CHINASSL2013

At the 10th China International Exhibition and Forum on Solid State Lighting (CHINASSL2013) in Beijing, LED chip, lamp and lighting fixture maker Cree Inc of Durham, NC, USA won three LED lighting industry awards. The China SSL Alliance presented Cree with the award for ‘Most Influential Company in Decades’, while the International SSL Alliance awarded Cree the ‘2012-2013 Global SSL Industry Annual Event’ (for the introduction of the 200lm/W XLamp MK-R LED) and the ‘2013 Global SSL Industry Showcase Top 100’ (for its collaboration with Shanghai Yaming on the Shanghai Yuexing Global Harbor).

“It is an affirmation of the significance of our achievements from the previous years and will encourage us to expand our leadership in LED technology through relentless innovation and joint efforts with our Chinese industry allies,” comments Dr Jiaping Shao, sales general manager and technology director, Cree China.

This year marks the 10th anniversaries of both China’s National SSL Program and CHINASSL. Each year a series of award ceremonies is held during CHINASSL to recognize the companies that make remarkable contributions to the development of the global SSL industry.

“The global SSL market remains a largely untapped opportunity,” says Shao. “Cree wants to move the SSL market even faster than what has been experienced to date, which can bring more technology development opportunities for everyone,” he adds.
