Lumileds Lighting was formed in November 1999 as a joint venture between Philips Lighting and Agilent Technologies. It develops and markets LEDs. Upon Philips' acquisition, Lumileds has become a business unit within Philips Lighting and is known as Philips Lumileds Lighting Company. In March 2015, Lumileds’ parent company Philips agreed to sell an 80.1 percent stake in the business to the investment fund, Go Scale.〔(Go Scale to fund Philips lighting components buy with $1.93 billion in debt, Reuters, 27 May 2015 )〕 In October 2015, ''Financial Times'' reported that the CFIUS regulatory body may block the $2.9B deal owing to fears of Chinese subversion of the US high-tech sector.〔Duncan Robinson, "US may block Philips’ $3bn Lumileds sale", FT.com, October 26, 2015〕 Following the transaction, the new company will continue under the name Lumileds, led by CEO Pierre-Yves Lesaicherre. Philips’ Lighting Solutions business will remain a customer of Lumileds and will continue the existing partnership. ==LUXEON== LUXEON is the trade name for high power LEDs that dissipate 1 watt or more. Models include LUXEON I, LUXEON III, LUXEON V, LUXEON K2, LUXEON Star, and LUXEON Rebel. They are available in many colors, including white.
