2026 celebration is oriented towards inspiring the young generation to choose photonics as a field of study and discover the global impact they can create with light-based technologies.
This year, we especially encourage our members to show pupils how photonics can become an exciting field of study and a meaningful career path. We invite companies to give talks at local schools or similar educational institutions, reaching young people before they make important decisions about their future studies. These outreach activities will help raise awareness of photonics, attract future talent, and inspire the next generation to shape the future through light-based technologies.
Register your lecture HERE and send us your materials afterwards about the lecture (videos, photos, testimonials, descriptions, etc.) by elisenda.lara@epic-photonics.com. We will make sure to promote your actions and your company.

Please send us your materials and / or make posts until 20 November, 2026 inclusively.
