Prepare for a day of groundbreaking insights at the Minalogic Innovation Talks 2025, a premier industry event designed to unite leading experts from both industry and academia. On November 18th, 2025, Lyon will become the central hub for silicon photonics and quantum innovation. This is your chance to engage with cutting-edge research, industry leaders, and ambitious startups exploring the technologies defining the future of computation and communication.

Spotlight on Innovation: Featured Presentation

Mark your calendar for a keynote presentation from LIGENTEC’s CCO, Michael Geiselmann, at 16:40. This session is dedicated to “Photonic Integrated Circuits: Principles and Applications”, offering a unique perspective on how advanced PICs are accelerating the development and scalability of next-generation quantum systems.

The Day’s Agenda: Three Core Sessions

Join us for an exploration of the intersection between photonics and quantum technologies:

• “Photon for Computation” – Quantum computing fundamentals and PEPR OQULUS advances (CEA LETI), cutting-edge architectures (QUANDELA, QUIXQUANTUM), and pitches from SMEs and entrepreneurs
• “Photon for Detection” – Quantum detection fundamentals (ENS Paris Saclay), optical clocks (Menlo Systems), and quantum imaging (Qnami)
• “Photon for Quantum Cryptography & Enabling Technologies” – Quantum cryptography fundamentals (LIP6, Sorbonne Université, CNRS), industrial applications (Thales Alenia Space, VeriQloud), and photonic routing for large-scale quantum computing (IRT Nanoelec/VIQTHOR, Toptica France/Naquidis)
