Help Shape the Future of Integrated Photonics — Join the IPSR-I Working Groups

Join the IPSR-I working groups and contribute to shaping the future of integrated photonics through a collaborative, industry-driven technology roadmap.

As a working group member, you will work alongside leading experts from industry and academia to:

  • Shape the roadmap: Incorporate feedback from readers and the broader photonics community.
  • Identify emerging technologies: Introduce new topics, trends, and technological developments that will shape the future of integrated photonics.
  • Keep the roadmap relevant: Review existing content, update technology projections, and phase out obsolete topics.
  • Collaborate with experts: Exchange knowledge, build consensus, and contribute to a shared vision for the industry's technological evolution.

Your expertise can help ensure that the IPSR-I roadmap remains relevant, forward-looking, and aligned with the evolving needs of the integrated photonics industry.

Who Should Join?

We welcome experts from industry, academia, and research organizations who have technical expertise, practical experience, or strategic insights into integrated photonics and its applications.

We particularly encourage participation from:

  • Technology developers and researchers working on photonic materials, devices, integration platforms, manufacturing, packaging, and testing.
  • Industry experts and system architects who understand application requirements, technology challenges, and future performance needs.
  • Foundries, equipment suppliers, and technology providers with insights into manufacturing capabilities, scalability, and industrialization.
  • End users and system integrators who can help align technology development with real-world market and application needs.

What Is the Expected Commitment?

Participation in an IPSR-I working group involves active engagement and meaningful technical contributions to the development and periodic updates of the roadmap.

Members are expected to:

  • Participate in working group discussions and meetings to review progress, exchange insights, and agree on roadmap priorities.
  • Review and update relevant roadmap sections within their areas of expertise.
  • Contribute technical content and data, including emerging trends, performance targets, technology challenges, and future projections.
  • Address feedback from roadmap readers and fellow working group members.
  • Collaborate on agreed deliverables and contribute within the timelines established by the working group.

The level of involvement may vary depending on the working group's activities, the roadmap update cycle, and the member's expertise. Specific meeting frequency, time commitments, and deliverables will be communicated by the working group leadership.
