Plan Now to Attend and Present Your Research
Photonics Europe is the place to be. It brings together different disciplines, technologies, and perspectives from across Europe and around the world. As a participant, you will be among the leaders who are presenting research, developing new contacts, and learning about the latest funding opportunities.
• Photonics Europe is conferences, workshops and seminars that will combine into a dynamic learning environment
• Photonics Europe has programmes and experts on new business development and bridges the gap between academia and industry
• Photonics Europe serves as the platform for new information updates on the European Commission's 7th Research Framework Programme (FP7) and for an outlook on Horizon 2020, the new EU Framework Programme for Research and Innovation that will run from 2014 to 2020.
• Photonics Europe features a comprehensive Hot Topics Session, and will include a unique welcoming reception, daily coffee breaks, plus other technical and social events
• Photonics Europe presents the Innovation Village: a window on creative products developed by universities and research centres
• Photonics Europe hosts the European Village: a display on European initiatives that showcase their consortium as well as their newest breakthroughs
The leadership of Photonics Europe 2012 has selected many of the toughest issues facing optical and photonics technologies today as the basis for their programmes. These current research issues will drive the development of new products for years to come.
Brussels' historical city centre provides a great atmosphere, against a backdrop of excellent dining, comfortable facilities, straightforward accessibility and easy transportation. 2012 is Brusselicious time in Brussels with lots of events organised around the central theme of gastronomy.
