Boudewijn Docter of Effect Photonics has confirmed to speak at the symposium.
Boudwijn Docter wil speak about the Applications of PICs in telecommunication networks.

Research on Photonic Integrated Circuits has a long history in The Netherlands. EFFECT Photonics is a young start-up company that is connecting this research to real world applications in optical fiber communication networks. But what parts of the network benefit the most of the strengths of photonic integration? What are the sweet-spots? And which problems still need to be solved to enable large scale deployment of this technology?
