Velux has inaugurated its first North American Experience Center in Mountain View, California, marking a significant expansion of its presence in the U.S. market. This new facility aims to educate and inspire AECM professionals by showcasing the benefits of natural lighting and ventilation in building design.

**What Happened**  
The Velux Experience Center, located at 312 Castro Street, Mountain View, offers a range of interactive exhibits and fully designed living environments. It serves as a comprehensive resource for architects, builders, remodelers, and designers to explore how skylight technology can enhance wellness and home comfort. The center also features educational displays and provides personalized consultations. Stephan Moyon, president of VELUX America/Canada, emphasized the significance of this new chapter for the company.

In addition to its educational offerings, the center houses Velux's third Pro Partner Academy in the U.S., providing free business and installation training for contractors. This initiative aims to bolster the skills of professionals in the region, with mobile training vans available for onsite team training.

The center's grand opening celebration is scheduled for September 18, with an open house event featuring live music, guided tours, and special appearances by personalities like Shavonda Gardner and the Renovation Husbands.

**What This Means for Your Business**  
For AECM professionals, the Velux Experience Center represents a valuable resource for integrating advanced daylighting solutions into projects. The center's offerings could lead to improved project outcomes, particularly in terms of energy efficiency and occupant comfort. By participating in the Pro Partner Academy, contractors can enhance their skills and gain a competitive edge in the market. The center's focus on training and education supports compliance with evolving building codes and standards, which increasingly emphasize sustainability and energy efficiency.

**What US Operators Should Watch**  
The opening of the Experience Center signals potential future expansions of Velux's offerings and training programs across the U.S. Professionals should monitor the development of new training opportunities and partnerships that may arise from this initiative. Additionally, keeping abreast of advancements in skylight technology and daylighting strategies can provide a competitive advantage in bidding for projects that prioritize sustainability and occupant wellness.
