Together with his corporate engagement team, Jose Pozo, CTO at the photonics society Optica, believes in focusing on the “grand challenges.” 

These include, he says, “the impact of a global chip shortage, and what the chips act will mean for photonics, the continuous search for qualified talent, access to affordable and trustworthy market data, selecting the right investors at the right time, engaging with young startups and scaleups for partnership, investment or acquisition, engaging with the end-users,” and more.
