With its world class portfolio of e:cue control systems in combination with Traxon-created OSRAM and Traxon branded luminaires, Traxon Technologies is a global leader in providing complete dynamic media and facade lighting solutions. It acts as a one-stop-shop for complete, sustainable and intelligent lighting solutions for architectural, entertainment, hospitality and retail lighting experiences.

Headquartered in Hong Kong, Traxon operates two major development hubs located in China and Germany combined with a strong global sales force.

As a testament to the long-term trusted partnership with OSRAM, we are delighted to become the licensee for the OSRAM brand for Traxon’s high quality luminaire products.”

Dr. Wilhelm Nehring, EVP Business Unit Digital at ams OSRAM commented: “Prosperity Group offers a long-term perspective for our Traxon employees and our customers along with the ability to foster additional value creation for customers. Prosperity’s deep roots in the lighting industry, its experience in luminaires and the long-term relationship between the companies make this an ideal next step in the evolution of the whole Traxon team.”

“We look forward to joining the Prosperity family. Both companies have a deep market knowledge and customer understanding.
