Dear colleagues,
The conference aims at strengthening the connections between theory and application and building stronger ties between university research and industry needs. We have the pleasure of welcoming leading researchers who shared the results of their work and industry exhibitors who presented their products and services.
We are also delighted to be joined by students who have chosen photonics as a career path. It is a great opportunity to network with the community of photonics researchers and industry.
Similar to last year, we will be dedicating a significant part of the conference to industry-related events, creating many opportunities for companies to showcase their products and technologies; network with other business leaders; meet end users, as well as opportunities to identify and talk to potential employees.
Finally, we wish to convey our gratitude to Dr Jinyang Liang and Dr Lora Ramunno who is doing an outstanding job as Program Co-Chairs. Thank you also to the partners, supporters, session chairs, and many volunteers, without you, the conference would not be possible.
Looking forward to seeing you in Vancouver.
