The initial feedback from our potential customers indicates that our solution is interesting and attractive. Just in Denmark, the investment in new LED toplighting lamps is expected to be several hundred million kroner in the shorter term, and internationally the potential for our product is large. We expect that it will be a significant revenue driver moving forward.”
