About PIC Summit Europe

PIC Summit Europe is the most influential event in the photonic chip industry. Taking place 4-5 November 2025 in Eindhoven, The Netherlands, PIC Summit Europe attracts the leading lights from across the photonic chip industry.

Taking place in Eindhoven, The Netherlands, PIC Summit Europe attracts the leading lights from across the photonic chip industry, which makes the event one of the most influential events in the industry.

Photonic chips, also known as Photonic Integrated Circuit (PIC), harnesses the power of light to create energy-efficient, faster, and more accurate microchips. These enable new applications, such as LiDAR, innovative networking solutions and all kinds of sensing solutions for agrifood, maintenance and medical challenges.

Imagine – two whole days dedicated to discussion, collaboration, and innovation with key international opinion leaders from across our thriving industry. The conference offers a rich programme – featuring keynotes from semicon executives, users of photonic chip technology, EU policymakers, and the wider photonic chip community to discuss the future of the global industry.
