Lighting Science Group (LSCG.OB) Appoints Chief Global Trade Officer to Grow International Sales

Lighting Science Group Corp. (“LSG”), a leading American maker of LED-based lighting, today announced the appointment of Greg Horn as the company’s chief global trade officer. He will be responsible for identifying, negotiating and executing strategic initiatives, deals and leading the creation of new businesses to grow the company’s international sales.

For the past two and half years, Horn has worked with LSG as an operating advisor at Pegasus Capital Advisors.
