Deep Tech Night: Quantum & Photonics
This edition of Deep Tech Night is our specialist subject. Most of the world's data already travels as light, and Fraunhofer HHI has spent decades building the photonic chips and optical networks that carry it, along with the quantum systems that will eventually secure it.
This time it's all about building with light: photonic integrated circuits, optical communication, quantum technology, and precision sensing. We're excited to host this event with OptecBB and Leap.
Who's it for?
Founders commercialising photonics or quantum research
Researchers curious about what their field looks like as a business
Investors who understand that the bottleneck in computing is increasingly optical
How does it work?
Five startups pitch to the room, an investor panel asks key questions, and the audience gets a question or two
A quick intro to our venture lab at Fraunhofer HHI, plus a very special guest talk
Drinks before, and food after
Want to pitch?
There are five slots, so if you're building with photons, apply below. The full line-up will be announced closer to the event.
Who is Silicon Allee?
Silicon Allee is the venture lab at Fraunhofer HHI, one of Europe's top applied research institutes. Through our CORE Topics, selected startups work directly with HHI's patents, researchers, and facilities, backed by our network and strategic guidance, with one goal: to get your tech developed and your first financing round closed.
