After a defense on 100G optical satellite communications, praised for its quality Daniel Romero Arrieta received his well-deserved phD degree from the jury, after three years with @BellLabs @nokia Paris Saclay in collaboration with @onera_fr @tsizer @jeanlucbeylat

Proud to summarize to the general assembly of @Photonics21 the discussions of the digital infrastructure workgroup. We came up with three draft priorities for the 2025-2027 research and innovation program @jeanlucbeylat

The executive Board of @Photonics21 hands over to Thomas Skordas of the European Commission their brand new strategic research and Innovation Agenda 2023-2030. This document captures the vision of >1000 experts in photonics across Europe @jeanlucbeylat @BellLabs @SupOpAlumni

After surveying across photonics companies in Europe, Lutz Aschke, @Photonics21 President make recommendations to prevent on-going supply chain issues to repeat.

At @Photonics21 Board of Stakeholder meeting, Mike Wale tells about new white paper reviewing opportunities for integrated #photonics in perpective of the EC multi-billion € chips act. photonics21.org/download/ppp… Photonics should join electronics in a joint ambition for chips!

At @Photonics21 annual meeting with Board of Stakeholders, @LucillaSioli from the EC emphasizes her expectations from the EU photonics industry for the upcoming few years, advocating particularly for an augmented digital infrastructure @jeanlucbeylat @nokianetworks

Nobel laureate 2022 Prof Alain Aspect (in video and in real life) comments how intimidated he was holding the arm of the Crown Princess during the Nobel ceremony @SupOpAlumni @Photonics21 @InstitutOptique

Haik Mardoyan of @BellLabs is on the big stage @ECOC_conference to report record 260Gbaud signal generation and transmission over 100km at the prestigious Postdeadline session. Excellent job! @jeanlucbeylat

Brilliant talk from our Daniel Romero of @BellLabs and @onera_fr explaining @ECOC_Conference why an interleaver is necessary in ground-to-#satellite optical links for mitigating atmospheric turbulence. Soon >100G coherent optics in space? @tsizer @nokianetworks

In her great plenary talk at #ECOC_conférence, Dr Rugi Grond of TAS commented that @BellLabs has not been associated with satellite comms since pioneer days of #Telstar. May I suggest her to extend her stay at ECOC_2022 beyond the 1st day ?

At @Photonics21 Board of Stakeholders meeting, W. Steinhoegl @PhotonicsInEU reviews research priorities in the field of #photonics, to appear in the next 23/24 Horizon Europe framework programme. Priorities were allelaborated from proposals of @Photonics21 members. @jeanlucbeylat
