Welcome to the most nutritious hour of business talk all week.

This is Coffee Break with Game Changers, presented by SAP.

The best run business is Run SAP.

Your host and moderator is Bonnie D. Graham.

You'll hear from the innovators who have learned to use game-changing technologies to shake up the status quo and help move today's businesses in new directions.

Now, here's Bonnie D. Graham.

Welcome, welcome, welcome.

If you want to run with the game changers, oh, I always say you're in the right place and we know it's true. Let's see what the buzz is.

Something to chew on there.

So what are we talking about?

Digital communications and energy-efficient LED lighting are revolutionizing

and transforming urban lighting infrastructures. How, why, where? Well, they're becoming
