The seminar is organized within the project „LED – Increasing Energy saving through conversion to LED lighting in public space”. The seminar will include more than 50 participants representing over thirty institutions from 10 European cities, including Kalmar, Rostock, Bad Doberan, Oskarshamn, Wismar, Warsaw, Gdańsk and others. The program for this seminar will focus on presentations of the thoughts and experiences and points of view on questions related to best practices on innovative methods of public lighting in cities and regions, which could reduce the energy consumption and CO2 emissions in order to adapt existing LED solutions to cities needs.

During this seminar, the participants will serve as a venue for discussing this issue with local authorities/decision makers/politicians/ officials in municipalities and regions, private companies/producers from Pomeranian region.

The seminar will be connected with the formal opening of an art installation called ‘Amber Drops’, located under the bridge above Szopy Street. This investment is realized within the LED project as a next edition of the long-term work on The Outdoor Gallery of the City of Gdańsk, managed by the Centre for Contemporary Art ‘Łaźnia’. The ‘Amber Drops’ installation will be formed with the yellow translucent pebbles made of epoxy resin with a built in LED lighting system that will shine after dark when natural light diminishes.
