"In particular, the renewals speak to the tangible success that our program delivers for partners".

"We have devoted significant sales and development resources to expand our options for third parties, making Color Kinetics' technology readily adaptable to diverse markets and applications".

Companies align with Color Kinetics in several ways, including the purchase of DLEs and other subsystems and components for turnkey integration into their own product lines, and by licensing the company's core technologies and corresponding issued patents.
