We are the Waterloo Section of the Illuminating Engineering Society (IES)—a passionate community dedicated to the art and science of lighting! 🌟

As the go-to authority on illumination for over a century, IES connects engineers, architects, designers, educators, students, and industry pros to share knowledge, set lighting standards, and brighten the world—literally.

Founded in 2023, we bring Southwest Ontario together for idea-sharing, professional growth, and innovation in lighting. Let’s light up the future! 💡

We’re all about building a local lighting community! Whether you’re a student exploring the field or a seasoned pro, we’d love to connect. Join us to learn, network, and geek out over great lighting. ✨
