Photonics

European Partnership for Photonics

Basic Information

Description

Photonics – the technology of light - underpins daily life from smartphones to the internet and medical instruments to laser technology. It is an essential building block for the digital transformation of industry and society and for a green and healthy future in Europe. The new Photonics Partnership will secure Europe’s technological sovereignty through photonic innovations and their transfer into applications, raising Europe’s competitiveness and ensuring long-term job and prosperity creation.

The main objectives are to strengthen the photonics ecosystem along the value chain support diffusion of photonics technologies and contributes to growth and jobs and raise competitiveness. In detail:
• Foster a focused, continuous and synergetic development of key photonics technologies, components and systems in Europe
• Push for the rapid diffusion into the various sectors that critically depend on innovative photonics solutions by early collaboration along value chains
• Fully exploit the potential of photonics for a digital, green and healthy future in Europe by providing critical components and systems and processes for next generation applications
• Securing Technological Sovereignty for Europe by maintaining leadership in core photonics technologies and in the application of photonics through ensuring common strategic research and investment commitment
• Raise the International Competitiveness of Europe's economy and ensure Long-term Job and Prosperity creation in Europe
