Innovation at PHOTONEX08

The 'Innovation Area' is an event within an event. Photonex08 is already known for being the place to see innovations ready for use in science and industry, but now there is more! This is a new section of the exhibition, an area created to bring together, demonstrations of the greatest and cream of recent innovations in photonics from UK and Ireland universities, spin-offs and SMEs.

Here it is what it is all about:

• It's all about the pushing forward UK photonics and demonstrating to the visitors the extent of the UK's R & D community and superb skill-base.
• It's an opportunity to get 'Best of Breed' technology noticed and/or invested in.
• It will bring together people with complementary skills, financing, resource and the will to succeed.
• It's a showcase for the UK's latest developments.

This event is entirely orientated to bringing people
together, networking for success.
