Optica Global Photonics Economic Forum
September 24 - September 25

This third edition of the Optica Global Photonics Economic Forum will convene on September 24 – 25 in Malaga, Spain, right after ECOC 2026.
As integrated photonics is at the center of several high-stakes global transitions, from AI compute demand and sustainable manufacturing to defense readiness and semiconductor sovereignty, this event brings together strategic experts and executives to discuss how to navigate these opportunities and challenges.
PHIX CEO Albert Hasper will join a panel discussion on closing the industrialization gap for integrated photonics.
