Conferences & Exhibitions

The annual photonics extravaganza SPIE Photonics West is set to take place from 2 to 7 February in San Francisco, and promises to be bigger than ever

The ECOC Exhibition is the largest optical communications exhibition in Europe, held each September in a different European city, the event is the key meeting place for decision makers from across the fibre optic communications technology industry.

Now in its 24th year, the exhibition now attracts over 6,000 decision makers from all around the world – bringing together manufacturers, suppliers and service providers to networking, gain insights on the latest developments, new products and trends in the industry.

The Symposium OCLA is geared towards technically interested engineers and scientists working with laser optics, high-end optical coatings, thin film deposition and characterisation. The Symposium OCLA offers a cross-disciplinary meeting place for engineers, scientists and technicians which are involved in all aspects of the manufacture, design or application of laser optical components.

The conference where the latest information is presented by leading researchers in image processing, physics, computer-aided diagnosis, perception, image-guided procedures, biomedical applications, ultrasound, informatics, radiology and digital pathology, with an increased focus on fast emerging areas like deep learning, AI, and machine learning.

10+ networking breaks, new members presentations, keynote speakers, technology presentations & discussions, 250+ participants of executive level, networking dinners, company visits.

The purpose of this symposium is to provide an interdisciplinary platform for the exchange of experience and information as well as sharing recent findings in the field of single photon based quantum technologies. The symposium will cover a rather broad range of topics, since “single photons” are one important basis for many quantum technologies, such as single-photon detectors and sources, metrology and sensing, correlations and entanglement, communication and QKD, information processing, or integrated photonic quantum circuits.

As the world of 3D-printing is evolving, electronics is quickly becoming a new key player. Functional elements such as sensors and switches are now being integrated into 3D-printed products, paving the way for exciting new markets, applications and opportunities.

Thought leaders of this emerging market are converging in Eindhoven during the 3D Printing Electronics Conference to share their knowledge and expertise. Learn about 3D-printed embedded electronics in cars, pended optics and the 3D-manufacturing of smartphone antenna’s.

The 7th International Conference on Photonics, Optics and Laser Technology

Innovate UK and the Knowledge Transfer Network are hosting the Horizon 2020 photonics event which is aimed at supporting collaboration across the UK and Europe. It will be promoting funding opportunities available for photonics through Horizon 2020, the EU’s largest research and innovation funding programme.
