CSEM Photonic Day

Join us to at CSEM in Neuchatel to learn more about the latest technology trends in photonics and new market opportunities. We will look at how quantum computing is driving miniaturization and how this is opening opportunities in other markets.

Photonics is one of fastest evolving technologies with great significance for a wide range of high-tech industries in Switzerland, ranging from medtech and life sciences to precision manufacturing. It is also a key enabling technology for the strategically vital communication infrastructure and crucial to both quantum computing and cryptography.

Join us at CSEM in Neuchatel, to meet with the stakeholders of the Swiss Photonic community, discuss trends and novel market opportunities and learn more about CSEM capabilities in photonics. A special focus will be laid on miniaturization in photonics, which is currently driven by significant investments in quantum computing technologies and AI in datacom, but is also bringing opportunities in serval other markets. Our Key-Note speaker Prof. Hatice Altug and Dr. Bert Jan Offrein will explain how photonics is enabling new applications in medical diagnostics as well as neuromorphic computing!
