Industry Technology Programme
The theme of the Photon06 Industrial Technology Programme will
be ‘Connecting emerging Optoelectronic technologies with future
markets’. The programme will showcase the most recent technological
advances, illustrate innovative industrial applications and identify
emerging future markets. Bridging the divide between academia and
industry, the programme will consist of a number of technology-industry
focussed sessions.
Monday 4 September
Tuesday 5 September
Wednesday 6 September
Monday 4 September
Industrial technologies and materials processing
Session 1: Innovative industrial laser processing technologies
for next generation manufacture Organised by the Association of
Industrial Laser Users (AILU), this should be of interest to both
academic and industrial delegates at Photon 06. It will concentrate
on innovations in laser materials processing in two areas: power
photonic sources (from high power CW fibre to table top femto-second
lasers) and industrial technologies with a high potential future
impact (from nanotechnology to rapid manufacturing).
Session 2: New developments in high power lasers Organised
by the Association of Industrial Laser Users (AILU). For further
details on how to submit an abstract, please go to www.photon06.org
and follow instructions on abstract submission for Optics and Photonics
2006.

Tuesday 5 September
Optoelectronic chemical gas and chemical
sensing – requirements and technology
Organised by the UK Optoelectronic Chemical Sensing Network (OptoCem.Net),
a DTI Knowledge Transfer Network established to promote the development
of gas and chemical sensing using optoelectronics. Presentations
will focus on the needs of the oil/gas and water/environment industries
and on the emerging technologies which can address these needs.
Reference will be made to the results of a Roadmapping exercise
conducted in the first half of 2006.
Session 1: Water industry- requirements and technology
Session 2: Gas sensing – requirements and technology
Session 3: Oil industry – requirements and technology.

Optoelectronics is an all-pervasive enabling technology that
can be applied to a vast number of markets and the importance to
the UK economy has been reinforced by the recent establishment of
the photonics Knowledge Transfer Network (KTN). The business & innovation
programme will be useful for large companies searching for new markets
and product-enhancing technologies and for small and medium sized
enterprises seeking to develop and expand their businesses. The
programme will cover issues related to new start ups and other business-critical
themes: IP, legal issues, patents, funding, international collaboration,
knowledge transfer and effective networks.
Benefits to your company:
• Build new customer relationships. Market your company to
large and medium sized technology enterprises.
• Raise funding for your company. Market your company to global
investors and get their direct feedback
Benefits to you personally:
• Learn how to establish your own disruptive business models
by learning from the best technopreneurs from around the world.
• Get practical operational insights from successful entrepreneurs
on how to grow your company in the global market.
• Become an active part of a global network for 21st century
entrepreneurs

To register
Places are limited and people from industrial and academic backgrounds
with commercial, partnership or business interests in the fields
of optics and photonics will get priority. To book a place, please
register online via the online
registration form or download the registration form available
in PDF format here.
This event will provide opportunities for networking and discussion
between successful entrepreneurial academics, representatives from
small and large companies and consultants. It will also encourage
and create partnerships between similar-minded universities and
industries sharing common interests and goals. This business programme
has been organised by the Institute of Physics to provide a network
which will act as a catalyst for innovation, bringing together ideas,
people and resources which can provide expertise and address challenges
within the field of photonics industry.
To book your accommodation
Please see further information
available about various accommodation options on this website.
Join the online nano-, opto- and biotechnology forum
The Institute of Physics invites all interested participants to
join one of its most popular online forums – the ‘‘nano-, opto-,
and biotechnology forum’’ – for free. The forum is concerned with
the physical sciences areas of emerging technology. Professional
groups interested in cross-disciplinary research areas aimed at
the application of research & development and manufacturing across
a wide range of disciplines are particularly encouraged to join.
Meetings, conferences and seminars are arranged to hear top scientists
and business leaders discussing the hot topics. These meetings also
provide valuable networking opportunity to discover the latest research
driving commercialisation. Regular technology articles are produced
to keep members up-to-date with the latest developments in their
field and provide information on relevant meetings organised by
other bodies. To join e-mail: dipali.chauhan@iop.org
