The
World of Photonics Congress 2009 again attracted approximately
3,100
delegates from all over the world. The congress was larger, had a stronger
international character, and had a sharper focus on practical applications than
ever before. The seven individual conferences covered the entire spectrum of
optical technologies. A new addition was the "Manufacturing of Optical
Components" conference, which was organized by the European Optical Society
(EOS). The focal point topics like biophotonics emphasized at the trade show
were also examined in a number of conferences at the World of Photonics
Congress.
The World of Photonics Congress is the
leading international
congress for optical technologies in Europe and one of the Top 3 congresses of
its kind worldwide. It is held in conjunction with LASER World of PHOTONICS, the
international trade fair for optical technologies including components, systems
and applications, so there is an intense exchange between the scientific an
industrial sectors.
The next World of Photonics Congress will be held
from
22-27 May 2011.
For journalists interested in the World of Photonics Congress we have the following materials available:
