Our Ecosystem

The LUCI network encompasses a rich ecosystem, comprised of Regional Offices, Partners, Ambassadors and Honorary Members, that we value immensely.

We’ve developed this ecosystem over more than 20 years to create synergies and promote cooperation within and beyond the global urban lighting community.

LUCI Regional Offices

LUCI Regional Offices support the regional development of the network and aim to reflect the variety of lighting culture and identities in the global conversation on urban lighting.

LUCI Regional Office for Asia (LROA), launched in 2017, is a representative office of LUCI in Asia which promotes and delivers activities on behalf of LUCI. LROA is managed by a Technical Coordinator, employed by the Seoul Metropolitan Government.
