The U.S. government has announced a 90-day pause before it moves forward with new tariffs on high-tech imports. While this gives the industry a bit of breathing room, it also raises big questions about what’s coming next—and how Europe’s photonics sector should prepare.

In this exclusive online roundtable, senior leaders from the photonics sector and related industries will come together to discuss:

• How U.S. tariffs are reshaping global supply chains and affecting access to critical components.
• The competitive pressures arising from redirected Asian overcapacity and increased market volatility.
• The financial and operational implications of tariffs on optical and photonic products.
• Strategic recommendations and policy advocacy efforts to strengthen European resilience and reduce dependence on non-EU sources.

Join us for this high-level online meeting to gain insights, share perspectives, and explore potential pathways to safeguard and future-proof the European photonics industry in a shifting geopolitical landscape.
