Lighting out of the box
LightwaveRF plc ("LightwaveRF", "Lightwave" or the "Company"),
the leading smart home solutions provider, is pleased to announce
that it has signed an agreement with Google to jointly market its
Lightwave compatible smart speakers, making Lightwave the first
installed Smart Lighting manufacturer in the UK to offer the

The Google Mini and Google Nest Hub, supplied by Google, are
being made available for customers to purchase at an attractive
bundle price from Lightwave directly on www.lightwaverf.com or from
a selection of Lightwave authorised retailers and stockists,
including AO.com.
The starter kit bundles offer launched in Germany on the evening
of 28 June 2019, via the dedicated Smart Home online retailer,
Tink, www.tink.de/lightwave, whilst the UK is scheduled to follow
later this month and other European markets thereafter.

customers on the benefits of the voice-activated Google Assistant
for managing their home. Together they will engage in a range of
initiatives to demonstrate Lightwave and Google products working
together in-store and online.
Commenting on the agreement, Jason Elliott, Lightwave CEO, said:
"The contract with Google demonstrates a commitment from both sides
to make it easy for customers to select and buy great products that
work seamlessly together to create a fantastic experience. The
partnership also further reinforces Lightwave's position as the
brand that offers the most convenient and affordable installed
Smart Lighting solution available on the market."
