Photonics (light based technologies) is an essential building block for the digital transformation and for a green and healthy future in Europe. The main objectives are to strengthen the photonics ecosystem along the value chain, support diffusion of photonics technologies and contributes to growth and jobs and raise competitiveness.
By 2030 Europe will have maintained leadership in core and emerging photonic technologies.
The European Technology Platform Photonics21 represents the photonics community of industry and research organisations. Jointly with the European Commission our members develop and implement a common photonics strategy in a Horizon Europe Public Private Partnership (PPP) to spur growth and jobs in Europe.

Partnerships group the EC and private and/or public partners, to coordinate and streamline the research & innovation initiatives and funding in some selected key domains.
The Department of Economy, Science and Innovation of the Flemish government coordinates the Horizon 2020 Coordination and Support Action SAPHIRe, which started on 1 December 2018. The aim of the project is to secure the adoption of personalised medicine in all European regions, including sparsely populated and remote regions and regions with different innovation capacities.
The activities of SAPHIRe are complementary to the smart specialisation partnership on personalised medicine – S3P4PM, which is also coordinated by the Department of Economy, Science and Innovation.
