Purpose of the Innovation Village
· To support and publicise research teams from universities, non-profit institutions and research centres who are working on research, new applications and product development.
· To provide free exhibition space together with broad exposure and publicity to the young innovators who are developing the photonics-based products of the future.
· To showcase Europe's (and the world's) finest research programmes and to encourage the transfer of optics/photonics research and technology into new and useful products.
