  2. Perspecives on GE, Philips, Sylvania and Cree all exiting the lamp business in recent years.
  3. Managing channel conflicts.
  4. If the Wolfspeed/Infineon deal were approved by government regulators, how would that have changed the trajectory of Cree and the competitive dynamics in the lighting industry?
  5. How might the lighting industry be disrupted next?
