The rapid change of lighting industry, is the traditional lighting giant GE make a choice.

International brand mind guess behind the international giants "action", what is the reason? From a rational point of view these international brand choice, we will find that these are inevitable LED lighting industry market development, industry norms in the process of a stage. So, the international lighting giant or sell some of its business, or withdraw from a regional market, which has deep meaning? To this end, we integrated the lighting industry point of view, mainly has the following conjecture: 1, Asian market competition excessive, bear the brunt of the "price war". If the original Samsung exit, there are industry insiders predict, due to fierce competition, especially in the overseas market lasting price war, resulting in Samsung Electronics LED business in the overseas market performance continued to slump. 2, LED lighting applications, low profits, "chicken ribs" decisively abandoned. GE before the exit in Asia, Latin America, lighting business revenue continued to decline, in the face of these problems, "performance" GE choose a more professional field, more professional, more market profit products, or is wise. 3, moderate adjustment "big and complete", "fine plough". OSRAM chose to "sell" the source of business, in large part because of its focus on three core business: special lighting, lighting systems and solutions and optoelectronic semiconductor growth and innovation, and the professional field has its unique advantages and value.
