Thank you for joining us in Prague - where the latest advances, insights, and breakthroughs were shared.

Many leading researchers met to discuss their work in the technology, integration, and application of optics and optoelectronic devices—the meeting for emerging photonics fields including the extreme light technologies that drive Europe’s largest infrastructure projects.

Attendees met face-to-face with top companies at the free 2-day exhibition to discuss research and technology needs with suppliers and industry partners who are there to help solve problems, cut costs, and increase capabilities.
We look forward to gathering again in April of 2025.
