SUMMARY:Digital Technology in Laser Manufacturing
DESCRIPTION:Digital Manufacturing promises a higher degree of automation and repeatable quality\, continually striving for improvements and to eliminate defects. Much talked-about Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) promise to transform the world of manufacturing and help to fill the skills gap which has opened up in the past decade. As well as techniques to improve throughput\, consistency and quality\, the rise of advanced modelling allows processes to be proven virtually before committing to the application of hardware. Smart factories and the Internet of Things are applications of Industry 4.0 (the fourth industrial revolution)\, and a post-pandemic world will no doubt wish to invest in increased automation and building resilience to guard against future vulnerabilities in the supply chain and resources required to manufacture tomorrow’s products. \nThis workshop is suited to anyone seeking to build knowledge or add to their network\, by meeting and hearing experts in the field of Digital Manufacturing with lasers. The event is scheduled to be a live event\, with hybrid access options for remote presentation.

SUMMARY:Photonics for Europe
DESCRIPTION:The new European research and innovation framework programme Horizon Europe is open for business\, and UK organisations are eligible to take part. Under Horizon Europe\, photonics continues to be recognised as a key enabling technology and retains a dedicated budget. \nThis event will provide an overview of the role of photonics in Horizon Europe\, including the role of Photonics21 and PhotonHub. Opportunities for photonics businesses and researchers to take part in Horizon Europe will be highlighted\, both in the core photonics area and across the wider programme. \nThis is a unique opportunity for business and researchers from the UK and Europe to find out more about the new photonics programme and how to get involved. A pitching opportunity will also be provided alongside networking sessions.

SUMMARY:Towards a European Strategy on Quantum Photonics Integrated Circuits- Online Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Photonic Integration in general and Quantum Photonic Integrated Circuits (QPICs) in particular are considered as an enabler for quantum technology\, and conversely quantum technology is regarded as a major emerging market for photonic integration. \nIn order to profit from the European Quantum Flagship and the Photonics21 ETP that are actively supporting these fields in Europe\, joint efforts are needed to gain technological leadership and stimulate job creation. \nIn this context\, a joint Focus Group from both initiatives has been formed\, with the general goals of making QPICs a European priority and setting up a European QPIC infrastructure on the longer term. A position paper from this Focus Group that elaborates the required efforts in more detail is currently under preparation. This position paper will be used to build the basis for future cooperation of projects from both areas\, better access to infrastructure and joint funding activities of both initiatives. \nThe Focus Group is organizing a joint online workshop “Towards a European Strategy on Quantum Photonics Integrated Circuits”\, which aims on the one hand at presenting and discussing the preliminary version of the position paper and further elaborating the general goals of the joint efforts\, and\, on the other hand\, at bringing together and showcasing research projects working on QPICs stemming from different funding initiatives.

SUMMARY:National Security Investment (NSI) - legislation  impact on photonics webinar
DESCRIPTION:In collaboration with SPIE’s Public Policy team and the Knowledge Transfer Network\, the Photonics Leadership Group are organising a webinar on the forthcoming UK National Security Investment (NSI) legislation and its potential impact on photonics on Tuesday\, February 9 @ 16:00-17:00 GMT\n\n \n\nThis key new law will require mandatory notification to government of asset transfers of many types (from company sale to IP & design transfers) in many areas including photonics and compound semiconductor materials\, metamaterials\, quantum technology and communications.\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\nLeanne Thomas\, Corporate Director\, Greenaway Scott will summarise the potential impact of the Bill from a legal perspective followed by a Q&A panel discussion with a US lawyer and Dr John Lincoln of the Photonics Leadership Group and representative from the UK Department of international trade.\n\n \n\nPlease register in advance at https://spie-org.zoom.us/webinar/register/9016105865290/WN_T8Ys8CnUQ2OUCYzCcXfwbw\n\n \n\nProgress of the Bill into law can be followed on parliament.uk with detailed documentations at gov.uk.

SUMMARY:Scaling Up and Commercialising Metamaterials webinar
DESCRIPTION:Once an aspect of metamaterials technology has been identified with the potential in a particular application\, there is a need to look to scale up the production to develop demonstrators and prototypes. This activity is often associated with a start-up or SME since the technology is brought in from research. The needs of these small enterprises in progressing\, from this first step to commercialisation\, can include a variety of services offered from academia to investors. Very often investors will only be interested in further steps to commercialise or upscale. \nThis KTN webinar will bring together a variety of experts who can offer organisations the support they need to successfully scale up and commercialise. This includes modelling services from academia; advanced manufacturing scale up from catapults and academia; innovation funding and investor access from Government-funded organisations; early-stage design expertise to ensure capture of best product and application\, to name just a few
