The 5th PIC International conference will build on the success of its predecessors, with industry-leading insiders delivering more than 30 presentations spanning five sectors.
Attendees at the two-day conference will gain an up-to-date overview of the status of the global photonics industry, and will have the opportunity to meet many other key players within the community.
PIC International is part of AngelTech, which delivers a portfolio of insightful, informative, highly valued chip-level conferences. Bringing together 3 conferences, 700+ delegates, 80+ exhibitors, 120+ presentations and numerous networking opportunities, AngelTech is the number one global event covering compound semiconductor, photonic integrated circuit and sensor technologies. With a strong over-lap between the three conferences, attendees and exhibitors are exposed to the full relevant supply chains and customer and supplier bases.
PIC International made its conference debut in March 2016, surpassing the high expectations of attendees and exhibitors. PIC International Conference promises even more opportunities to meet key players involved in the development and deployment of photonic integrated circuits, but 12 months is too long to wait for your next industry update.
In response, we launched the PIC International Magazine later that year - a quarterly publication tracking the whole value chain, including wafers/materials, devices, modules, systems and service providers. This digital title, available on phone, tablet and PC, delivers on its mission to inform readers on key progress being made worldwide in the production and application of photonic integrated circuits.
