Photonics West 2024 — things are starting to happen now! How’s everybody feeling?
As you step into the Moscone Center, you’re not just entering a space; you are entering a realm of endless possibilities and opportunities. Over the next couple of days, you’ll be treated to a diverse and dynamic program featuring renowned speakers, interactive sessions, and networking events to ensure that your experience is both enriching and memorable.
Meanwhile, we’ve been hard at work, walking the floor and talking with those in the know, then sharing those interviews with you in this special edition of our weekly newsletter. And, if you think you missed anything be sure to check out our Photonics West page for complete coverage of the event.
Don't forget to slow down and breathe every once in a while, and have a great time!
