Flashnet closes 2026 with a packed global event calendar 

After a first half of the year that took us from Dubai to Frankfurt, San Diego to Raleigh, we enter the final stretch of 2026 with an equally ambitious lineup. Over six weeks this autumn, our team will be present at five major industry events across Europe and the United States  meeting cities, utilities and technology partners. 

We're looking forward to seeing what new opportunities, discussions and connections this autumn's events will bring. As municipalities move from pilot projects to full-scale deployments, the conversations happening at these events are increasingly practical

Trade Fair for Power Industry ENERGETICS – Lublin, Poland  

November 17–19, 2026 · Hala Targi Lublin, Booth 81 

We will close the season in Lublin, Poland for a relevant setting to discuss the increasingly close connection between public lighting, energy management and connected infrastructure, with a focus on the Polish market.  

Our focus for the end-of-year events

Although each event focuses on different priorities, many of the questions cities and utilities are asking are similar: How can existing infrastructure be modernized without starting from scratch? How can energy and maintenance costs be reduced? How can different technologies work together without creating long-term vendor dependency? And how can investments made today remain relevant as smart city strategies evolve? 

Our team will demonstrate how inteliLIGHT® addresses these challenges through real-time monitoring and control, flexible communication technologies, open integrations and support for interoperable, multi-vendor architectures. It doesn't matter much whether you're starting with a few thousand streetlights or going city-wide – what cities aim for is the same. Public lighting that's simpler to operate now and that won't box them in later. 

"Every market has its own infrastructure, regulations and priorities, which is exactly why these conversations are so valuable. Meeting cities, utilities and industry partners in person allows us to understand those needs better and share what we have learned from inteliLIGHT® projects around the world. We look forward to seeing many familiar faces this autumn and meeting some new ones along the way." — Alexandru Buzatu, CCO, Flashnet
