OPENLIGHT was the creative lab of the Intelligent Lighting Institute, set-up by Philips and Eindhoven University of Technology: 
OPENLIGHT was co-founded and headed by designer, engineer and entrepreneur Rombout Frieling

The labs set out to allow young talent to discover the potential of the field of light, by allowing them to create experiences.
OPENLIGHT actively identified new themes, inspires and brought disciplines together to bring new possibilities forward. 
Since summer 2016, the activities have transferred to the ROMBOUT Frieling lab
