The 11th PIC International Conference builds on the strengths of the event’s previous editions, with around 40 leaders from industry and academia delivering presentations falling within four key themes:

• Foundations of PIC design: materials, devices, and processes
• Connectivity and scalability for secure, high-speed data networks
• Emerging applications: photonics for sensing, imaging, and beyond
• Future computing: PICs for photonic processing, quantum computers, and neural networks
