Here’s where you can meet us in 2026

Chip interconnects are a constraint modern computing hasn't solved. As our technology advances from lab to fab, you can catch us at upcoming industry events where we address this topic from various angles: what can integrated graphene photonics technology do, what the production progress looks like to get there, and questions the semiconductor industry needs to answer next.

  1. The AI Compute Summit 2026, hosted by Economist Impact, brings together leaders, policymakers, and technology experts to examine the infrastructure powering the next generation of artificial intelligence.  
    Cedric Huyghebaert joins the panel Beyond limits: the next compute breakthrough to discuss how optics and graphene are the next leap in AI compute.
