Accelerating Photonics Deployment via one Stop Shop Advanced Technology Access for Researchers

Description du projet

Un pôle d’innovation permettra aux technologies photoniques révolutionnaires de passer à l’industrie

Le projet ACTPHAST 4R, financé par l’UE, vise à soutenir le déploiement accéléré de technologies photoniques de pointe. L’initiative offrira aux chercheurs d’instituts universitaires de toute l’Europe la possibilité de transformer leurs concepts scientifiques révolutionnaires en démonstrateurs pertinents sur le plan industriel. Il agira comme un centre d’accès unique au savoir-faire d’experts en photonique et à des technologies matures des 24 premiers centres de compétences de l’Europe. Les capacités de la plateforme technologique photonique couvriront l’ensemble de la chaîne d’approvisionnement intégrée, de la conception à l’emballage. ACTPHAST 4R devrait changer l’écosystème européen de l’innovation, en améliorant la fertilisation croisée entre la photonique et d’autres domaines technologiques.

Objectif

ACTPHAST 4R is a unique one-stop-shop photonics technology access and support centre for European researchers which is perfectly aligned with their needs in bridging the gap between fundamental research at TRL1-2 and applied research up to TRL4-5. Driven by the deployment ambitions and capabilities of a critical mass of European top-class researchers -in particular non-photonics researchers for whom advanced photonics is a key enabling technology to the realisation of so many exciting and diverse new applications and products, ACTPHAST 4R will directly support the accelerated deployment of existing cutting-edge photonics technologies by providing them with action-oriented solutions on two complementary levels.
In the first instance, ACTPHAST 4R will provide researchers with one-stop-shop access to the photonics expert know-how and mature technologies of 24 of Europe’s leading competence centres. The photonics technology platform capabilities of ACTPHAST 4R cover the entire integrated supply chain from design to packaging. Through intensive technology coaching, leading to focused innovation projects involving transnational internships and hands-on working with the advanced photonics technologies at the host institutes, the goal is to turn the researchers’ scientific conceptual breakthroughs into industrially-relevant demonstrators.
In parallel, ACTPHAST 4R will provide researchers with expert business coaching to help foster their entrepreneurial mindset and deployment capabilities, with guidance to pathways for further scaling of their demonstrators and financing of innovation in the industrial domain. Ambitious targets are set for commercial valorisation successes by “star performing” researchers in the form of patents, licensing deals and spin-outs. As a result, ACTPHAST 4R will be a game-changer in strengthening the European innovation ecosystem and improving the cross-fertilisation of photonics with other technology areas.
