SPIE Photonics West 2012
January 21 to 26
The Moscone Center
San Francisco, CA
Every year, more than 19,000 people take part in SPIE Photonics West, the conference and marketplace for the photonics, biophotonics, and laser industries. The event includes 1,150+ companies and showcases the latest tools, applications, and innovations.
In this newsletter, Photonics Online brings you our focus on Photonics West 2012. You will find product and exhibitor information from some of Photonics Online's partners who will be at the show. Also, be sure to check out our Photonics West 2012 Resource Center — a hub for everything Photonics West 2012.
If you are attending the show, Photonics Online will be exhibiting at Booth #4231. Stop by to say hello and for a chance to win an iPad 2.
