The Photonics Global Conference (PGC-2023) will be held at KTH AlbaNova Campus, Stockholm, Sweden, on 21-23 Aug-2023. The aim of this conference is to foster interactions among broad disciplines in the photonics and optical communication family. This is going to be the biggest photonics and communication event this year in Sweden being an excellent platform to meet and share latest research work. Dr. Xiaodan Pang (KTH/IEEE) is one of the General Chairs and Dr. Rafael Puerta (Ericsson/IEEE) is one of the Program Chairs. A Women-in-STEM forum, organized and sponsored by IEEE-PS-Sweden, is planned to be an event as a part of the conference.

The forum “More Women-in-STEM for a Greener World” is an IEEE event at PGC-2023 organized and chaired by Prof. Qin Wang (RISE/IEEE) and Dr. Shagufta Naureen (Coherent/IEEE) and sponsored by a grant from the IEEE Photonics Society. This forum will provide a platform for all PGC-2023 participants to share their thoughts on getting more workforces to face current climate change and environmental degradation that threat the world. Several invited panelists from Swedish government, RISE, KTH and companies will join the forum to have an open discussion with audience.
