Analytical devices are becoming increasingly important for rapid diagnostics, personalized medicine, laboratory automation, and point-of-care testing. Photonics is a key enabling technology in the development and manufacturing of modern devices, providing the light sources, optical components, detectors, and sensing techniques required for accurate, rapid, and non-destructive measurements. Advances in lasers, integrated photonics, optical fibers, miniaturized spectrometers, and imaging systems have enabled compact, highly sensitive analytical instruments. As analytical devices continue to evolve toward greater portability, automation, and real-time operation, photonic technologies remain fundamental to improving their performance, reliability, and analytical capabilities.

This meeting will focus on the manufacturing of photonic-enabled analytical instruments, lab-on-chip platforms, biosensors, microfluidics and integrated diagnostic devices. We will discuss with component manufacturers, medical device companies, automation specialists… about the production challenges, quality requirements, scalability, and regulatory considerations. The meeting aims to connect technology developers with manufacturing partners and healthcare innovators.
