This workshop is with regards to Photonics partnering for funded collaborative projects.
The interest in Photonics and opto-electronic R&D has been growing swiftly in recent times as the demand through diverse applications continues. This workshop is organised by the Photonics Knowledge Transfer Network to encourage participation in collaborative proposals. In this first workshop we focus on the calls from the Technology Strategy Board (TSB) and the European Commission. The workshop is suitable both for those new to collaborative project work, and those more experienced who wish to find partners or learn more about proposal preparation. This event is fully funded by the Photonics Knowledge Transfer Network and is free of charge.
