Montréal, QC, Canada--Fiber laser specialist Genia Photonics has formed a strategic partnership and technology development agreement with In-Q-Tel (IQT; Arlington, VA), a not-for-profit, strategic investment firm that delivers innovative technology solutions to support the missions of the U.S. Intelligence Community. The U.S. Department of Homeland Security is a primary customer associated with the new partnership.
Dr. François Gonthier, Genia Photonics' CEO, notes that the partnership will foster new opportunities for leveraging the company's fiber-based technologies into related applications.
In addition to defense and security applications, Genia Photonics’ Synchronized Programmable Laser platform has applications such as nonlinear spectroscopy for the biomedical and industrial communities.
