New investment from the European Commission is helping innovators exploit the unique properties of light technologies to add smart features and improve the performance of their products through a proven ‘one-stop-shop’ photonics innovation factory.
Building on successes to date, a new PhotonHub framework has been launched to fund photonics innovation projects until December 2028 through a pan-European network of partners which includes SMART Photonics.
Called “PhotonHub PHACTORY”, the new €15 million initiative offers expert support, fast-track access to Europe’s leading laboratories, and generous subsidies.
Delivered through a trusted one-stop-shop model, the initiative makes high-end photonics support faster, easier, and more accessible than ever.
Ruud Vullers, R&D Director, SMART Photonics added: “SMART Photonics is honoured to be part of the PhotonHub Consortium in delivering photonics-led innovation support across a broad spectrum of industries. Our message for European companies is that the possibilities are endless – whether your company is emerging or established, exploring the potential for innovation through photonics could be invaluable in accelerating your product development, expanding your offering to customers, and securing additional revenue. Our team is excited to have the opportunity to collaborate on photonics technology innovation projects supported through PhotonHub.”
