Dallas Market Center has announced its Light Stars honorees for 2018, representing top salespeople from the leading lighting stores in North America. Over 50 participants from 20 states and four Canadian provinces will attend the June 20-23 edition of Lightovation – Dallas International Lighting show as part of the Light Stars program.
Light Stars are top retail salespeople who have never attended Lightovation, but would greatly benefit from the experience. Honorees accepted into the Light Stars program receive airfare and two nights of hotel accommodations during the show, which includes access to seminars, speakers and events. Hundreds of nominations were received this year through March 30.
“This year’s Lightovation is a prime time for Light Stars’ attendance as it presents a great opportunity for more lighting education than ever before,” said Cindy Morris, President and CEO of Dallas Market Center.
