I founded LUUXX over a decade ago with the vision to build a company that would deliver excellence in high-end residential integration. The journey has been rewarding, but navigating an industry with few formal regulations certainly presents its challenges. I have always believed in the importance of staying at the top of our game, and that’s where being a CEDIA member has proven to be invaluable.
LUUXX has been a proud CEDIA member for most of its existence. Recently, we upgraded to Premium membership through its newly launched tiering system. CEDIA is one of the few recognized bodies providing certification in our industry, and aligning with an organization that prioritizes quality and trust has been a critical component of our success.
A few years ago, we made a strategic shift to focus on collaborating with architects and designers. This decision transformed our business, and we leveraged CEDIA’s resources to support this evolution. Becoming certified to deliver CEDIA-approved CPD sessions became a cornerstone of our strategy. These sessions have opened doors to exciting projects and reinforced our standing as trusted experts in the field. They’ve played a pivotal role in solidifying our reputation and securing client confidence.

When CEDIA introduced its new membership tiering structure, upgrading to Premium membership was a natural progression. The benefits were clear and aligned perfectly with our goals. Premium membership offers cost-effective training opportunities for an unlimited number of our staff. Since training is vital for keeping our team at the forefront of industry standards, this was a no-brainer.
As business owners, I believe we have a responsibility to ensure our teams are equipped with the skills and knowledge they need to excel. For me, that responsibility goes hand-in-hand with our partnership with CEDIA. Their resources and support have helped us push boundaries, raise standards, and deliver exceptional results for our clients.
Beyond training, the additional benefits of Premium membership also support our growth. Priority listing on CEDIA’s search tool enhances our visibility to potential clients, while early access to new programs and products ensures we remain competitive in a fast-paced market. These advantages help us stay ahead of trends and maintain our edge.
Choosing Premium membership wasn’t just a practical decision — it also signifies our dedication to being part of a recognized body that values professional development and excellence. For any company aiming to elevate standards, access industry-leading training, and gain a competitive edge, I wholeheartedly recommend becoming a member. It’s been a springboard for our success, and I’m confident it can do the same for others.
