Interview with Photonics21 President Dr Lutz Aschke on recent AGM 

Hello from Brussels, where I am attending the annual Photonics21 partnership meeting, of which Optica is an active participant in the discussions. The organisation released a free 104-page market study on the Global Photonics Industry today. You can download it here: lnkd.in/dJnXcMxq. After leafing through it, I asked Photonics21 President Dr Lutz Aschke for his takeaways from the meeting so far and what Europe needs to do next in photonics to remain competitive. Stay tuned. I hope to gather more opinions from this well-attended event. Markus Wilkens
