Poster Exhibition & Demonstrations
We are happy to be able to accommodate a number of product demonstrations in the conference hall as well as a poster exhibition. But space is limited so make sure to specify in the registration form if you are interested in exhibiting products or posters.
Interested in Fiber Optic Research and Development?
Acreo Fiber Optic Center invites workshop participants to visit Acreo Fiberlab in Hudiksvall and their specialty fiber drawing facility. The visitors will also get an overview of recent fiber optics development within the Center. A bus will take anyone interested in the tour from the workshop venue to the fiber lab at 15.00 on the 27th of November and have everyone at the trainstation on time for the 17.00 train bound for Stockhlm Arlanda.
