Photonics: Computing at the Future of Light!

Photonics: Computing at the Future of Light!Join us to accelerate photonic technology and help power the next generation of compute. Photonic computing is can make data centers a seamless, valuable fabric of our local communities once again—slashing local power and water demands, contributing energy back to the grid, and building workforce skills for the future of AI compute.This exclusive Wednesday evening mixer brings together the sharpest minds shaping this movement: pioneering inventors, early- to late-stage founders, and forward-thinking venture capitalists. Photonic computing R&D is evolving rapidly across AI infrastructure, ternary operating systems, optical networking, and neural dynamic graph intelligence. By harnessing light, these breakthroughs unlock unprecedented compute power, minimize latency, drastically improve power efficiency, and eliminate extreme cooling water usage.If you are building, backing, or deploying the hardware, orchestration engines, and software frameworks powering tomorrow's compute, this is the room where the next generation of deep tech partnerships gets forged.Agenda6:00 PM: Arrival, Drinks, & High-Bandwidth Networking6:30 PM: Opening Remarks (10 Min): Where Can Photonics Take Us?7:45 PM: Updates & Announcements: Photonic Dealmaking Digital Hub & Community Building8:00 PM: Event ConclusionSpace is strictly limited to ensure high-value connections.
