The Flagship for Photonics Research and Innovation (PREIN) is one of the flagships funded by the Research Council of Finland for 2019-2026. PREIN brings together the main actors of photonics research and innovation in Finland. In its annual event, PREIN presents the highlights of the flagship activities and invites researchers, stakeholders and anyone interested to discuss photonics research in Finland. Photonics Finland and PREIN are working in a close collaboration, PREIN is also OPD2024 partner.
This year, the PREIN event you to learn about recent research highlights, our Proof of Concept projects and the updated Research Roadmap as well as the newly funded doctoral pilot programme. This is also a great opportunity for industry representatives to discover the links of the research roadmap to the larger national photonics roadmap and find out what the doctoral pilot can offer to companies.
