The LASER World of PHOTONICS trade fairs and their congresses are the most important marketplaces and think tanks for the worldwide laser and photonics industry and its users. They also combine research and applications, and promote the use and further development of optical technologies.

Its consistent orientation to actual practice is what makes the difference. No other exhibition presents technology in direct combination with industrial applications for various branches of industry and application sectors.

This combination of theory and practice, an extensive program of conferences and related events and the presence of all market leaders, decision-makers and users make LASER World of PHOTONICS unique and, at the same time, the most important international information and networking platform for the industrial, research and development sectors. Anyone who exhibits here showcases themselves to the world.

In addition to the leading international trade fair LASER World of PHOTONICS, MMI organizes the trade fair LASER World of PHOTONICS CHINA in the growth market of China.

LASER World of PHOTONICS CHINA has become the leading photonics exhibition in China since it was founded in 2006. It revolves around innovative products as well as their industrial solutions and applications, which reflects actual developments in the industry.

During the five years, LASER World of PHOTONICS CHINA has boosted growth of the laser industry by focussing on the industry's leading technologies. It offers opportunities to exhibitors and visitors alike. The exhibition's increasing numbers year after year demonstrate the leading role of LASER World of PHOTONICS CHINA as well as the market’s strong belief in this industry.

Besides focussing on traditional sectors such as lasers and optronics, the 2011 exhibition will emphasize special sectors such asoptical processing, optics manufacturing and optical-fiber communication. The result: a trade fair which represents a broad range of sectors in optical technologies.
