EDWATEC was honored to be invited by Ciena to present at the Photonics Innovation Showcase in London, where our CTO Dr. Amir Youssefi highlighted our advances in Erbium-doped photonic integration and hybrid amplification platforms alongside Ciena’s leadership and other pioneering innovators.

We were delighted to be invited by Ciena to present our technology at the Ciena Photonics Innovation Showcase held at their London office last week. Our CTO, Dr. Amir Youssefi, delivered an invited talk highlighting EDWATEC’s advances in Erbium-doped photonic integration and hybrid amplification platforms.
The event offered an excellent opportunity to exchange ideas with Ciena’s CTO Office, Strategy team, R&D group, and other visionary startup founders pushing the frontiers of photonic innovation.
Many thanks to Charles Mathy for organizing and coordinating such an inspiring event.
