SPIE. Photonics Europe Straßbourg, France

April 12-16, 2026

The Event

SPIE. Photonics Europe takes place every two years in Strasbourg, France, and is one of the leading international trade fairs in the field of photonics and laser technology. It is an interdisciplinary forum where researchers and engineers from science and industry meet and an excellent opportunity to keep up to date with the latest (and future) developments in optics and photonics and to advance the debate on these topics – from digital optics and quantum technologies to optical imaging, sensor technology and measurement technology, as well as THz photonics, 3D-printed optics, photonic glass, light-sensitive materials, and biophotonics. The program includes plenary lectures, technical presentations, poster sessions, networking and social events, an industry exhibition, and the Photonics Marketplace. SPIE. Optical Systems Design will take place in parallel, offering content for technicians, engineers, researchers, and managers involved in instrumental optics at all levels: design, specification, production, and testing.

Central Importance

SPIE. Photonics Europe is an indispensable event for us, as its diverse program offers a unique European platform for learning about the latest technological developments, maintaining and expanding networks, exchanging ideas with leading experts, and strengthening our position as a leading provider of coating solutions in the photonics industry. By participating, we can present our solutions to an international audience and network with experts and decision-makers from the industry and research.

Planned Activities

Presenting innovations

We want to present our advanced coating technology for a wide range of applications, such as optical lenses, medical devices, and laser systems, at the trade fair.

Networking

The opportunity to speak with leading experts and companies in the industry will help us form valuable partnerships and further expand our network.

Scientific Collaboration

Through exchanges with researchers and developers, we want to explore new opportunities for collaboration in applied research and development of coatings for future technologies.
