Trojan Lighting joins leading European transformation ecosystem – Neext

Trojan Europe has joined the Neext network, powered by Drees & Sommer, as a Gold Partner for 2026.

Neext is an international innovation network that brings together leaders from real estate, infrastructure and industry to collaborate on the future of buildings, cities and technology. With over 8,000 contacts across Europe and a programme of forums, think tanks and summits, the network provides a platform for organisations to share ideas, develop partnerships and drive innovation.

As a Gold Partner, we will contribute to discussions around smart buildings, decarbonisation and digital infrastructure, while working alongside a range of leading organisations across the built environment. The partnership will see us involved in a series of events and collaborative formats throughout the year, including thought leadership sessions, project-focused workshops and industry forums. This provides an opportunity to engage directly with consultants, developers, asset managers and infrastructure specialists on the challenges facing modern buildings. Our focus within the network will centre on the role of lighting as part of wider building infrastructure. This includes supporting projects that aim to improve energy performance, reduce carbon and provide better visibility of how buildings operate in practice.

With increasing emphasis on refurbishment and asset performance, the ability to upgrade existing buildings without major disruption is becoming more important. Our work in retrofit solutions and intelligent lighting systems aligns closely with this shift, offering a practical route to improving performance while reducing cost and environmental impact.

The Neext partnership is an important step in our European expansion plans, strengthening collaboration with organisations shaping the future of the built environment.
