We are pleased to announce the Industry Symposium on Photonic Sensing, to be held on Wednesday, September 4th, 2024, at OST in Buchs (SG).

Renowned speakers in the field of photonic sensing will present on a broad range of topics, including fiber optics sensing, environmental and biological sensing, photonic integrated circuits, biosensing by photonic metasurfaces, cavity quantum optomechanics, nanosecond pulsed mid-infrared lasers, and quantum communication and computing.

As the joint organizing committee, OST and Swissphotonics look forward to welcoming you to Buchs (SG). Join us at this event where attendees and speakers alike can benefit from a rich network, exchange ideas, and gain insight into new trends, measurement methodologies, and research findings.

Cost and registration
The event is free of charge but registration is mandatory. Registration details can be found here.
