Digital Catapult Day of Photonics
2024-10-21 13:00 - 16:30 | Queens Film Theatre, 20 University Square, Belfast, BT7 1PA, United Kingdom
Smart Nano NI Innovation Programme Launch

Flummoxed by photonics and what it means? Join us at Queen’s Film Theatre to mark the globally celebrated Day of Photonics, in partnership with the Smart Nano NI consortium. As we accelerate the practical application of deep tech in manufacturing, it’s time to highlight how industrial photonics can help optimise production, improve efficiency and resilience, and facilitate greater automation.
This event will see the launch of the latest Smart Nano NI Innovation Programme – a Technology Access Programme that will connect industry to a unique combination of experts, cutting-edge equipment and facilities in photonics and future networks.
Attendees will hear how the programme can accelerate their manufacturing projects, improve supply chain resilience, and bring their technological visions to life through deep tech solutions.
To shine a light on the application of photonics, attendees will also learn more about the benefits of deep tech innovations from manufacturers and technology providers across Northern Ireland—ranging from the use of technologies such as machine vision, optical sensors and laser scanners to inspect products, refine designs and monitor water quality.
Attendees will also hear how members of Smart Nano consortium are developing the latest in integrated photonic technologies to enable a range of groundbreaking applications.
We look forward to seeing you there!
Smart Nano NI is a Northern Ireland consortium collaborating to develop game-changing advanced prototyping and smart manufacturing methods to deliver new technologies. The consortium shares a niche capability around nano manufacturing and world-leading knowledge in photonics. The consortium has been awarded £42.4m UK Research and Innovation’s Strength in Places Fund. The total project value including leveraged funding from other sources is £63.9m.
