EPIC Sustainability Meeting on Standards
Online Event













Photonics has the potential to significantly contribute to a more sustainable world by supporting renewable energy, improving measurement and monitoring technologies, and reducing environmental impacts. At the same time, it is essential for photonics companies to integrate sustainable practices into their operations — not only to address climate change but also to promote community well-being, economic resilience, and long-term industry growth. Our Meetings are dedicated to inspiring and guiding both beginner and advanced member companies in adopting sustainability practices. We focus on broad sustainability factors, including environmental impact, social responsibility, and economic stability. Together, we aim to empower our industry to be more sustainable, creating innovative solutions that benefit society and the planet.

Standardization plays a critical role in driving sustainability across the photonics industry. From improving energy efficiency to reducing waste and ensuring responsible sourcing, standards help companies align their operations with global sustainability goals. Join us for this 1-hour online session to explore how standardization supports sustainable innovation, hear from industry experts, and discuss how your company can benefit from integrating standards into its sustainability strategy.

Event is dedicated to the EPIC members only.
