Signify NV (LIGHT.NV), formerly Philips Lighting, is an Eindhoven-based company that claims to be the world’s leading lighting business. The rebranding of the group was completed in 2018, but the Philips brand lives on as the company’s consumer and professional lighting unit. Signify is comprised of a total of four units – lamps, LED lamps and lighting; lighting systems and services for business customers; and Home, which offers ‘consumer luminaries’; and home systems.
Several brands nestle under those four main business units, including Philips, Modular-Lighting Instruments, which creates architectural lighting, high-end consumer lighting brand, Luceplan andinteract, and Signify’s lighting systems’ IoT platform.
Signify has been listed on Amsterdam’s Euronext Stock Exchange since 2016, having been spun off from Royal Philips, the 1891-founded conglomerate that is one of the world’s biggest electronics companies. Signify is also a constituent of the AMX index and the Dow Jones Sustainability index.
The company is a leader in the development of energy-efficient lighting technology and the use of IoT-informed data for the more efficient management of lighting energy consumption. Signify claims to have connected over 47 million light points internationally across its brands and units.
