Summary of the 2026 edition:

Lumière 2026: it’s THE photonics event in Quebec. Solutions Novika is once again taking part in this major Optonique event. Great encounters, strong momentum, and collaborations that will position Quebec’s photonics industry on the global stage. And we are privileged to have Jose Pozo with us!

Christophe Arnaud (Solutions Novika)

It’s now widely recognized: the annual Sommet Lumière organized by Optonique is where decision-makers come together. Bringing CEOs, CTOs, and key players in photonics together in one place is a tremendous time-saver. Thank you, Optonique — you are creating a true accelerator for tackling world-class industrial challenges that will be solved right here in Quebec.

Jerome Lapointe (JayPhotonics)

It’s always a golden opportunity to exchange with key players in Quebec’s photonics sector, including business leaders, government representatives, and national research institutes. The discussions highlighted several development opportunities, particularly in the defense and energy sectors, as well as in the priority sectors identified in Optonique’s Vision 2035. For Castor Optics, these exchanges are valuable for better understanding emerging needs and contributing to the growth of the local photonics ecosystem. Thank you to Optonique for organizing this unifying event!
