The Chairman of LUX PACIFICA is Dr. Warren Julian, IESANZ.

The first LUX PACIFICA conference was held in Shanghai (China) in 1989. That was very successful; with Thailand offering to host the second LUX PACIFICA was in 1993. Then followed, Nagoya (Japan) in 1997, New Delhi (India) in 2002 (rather than 2001) and The Illuminating Engineering Society of Australia and New Zealand hosted this important regional conference in 2005.
