Michael Lebby suggests transAtlantic collaboration:

“As someone who is active on both sides of the Atlantic, it is clear that the investments in integrated photonics are starting to show results. If you look at where the investment has been made in the last 15-20 years, the answer is mostly Europe and little bit in Japan. The Brainport Eindhoven region has certainly been a driving force in bringing teams and initiatives together for integrated photonics, both locally and across the continent.”

“But to really scale up this industry, you need tens of billions of dollars. So, Europe can still maintain its leadership role. The open question is whether Europe can get the IBM's, Cisco’s and Intel’s of this world to put in the billions. I think it is a challenge worth accepting. Europe has taught itself to collaborate efficiently, it has direction, a clear set of goals and lots of small innovative companies. I think some US high-tech startups and SME's busy with breakthrough technologies may benefit by looking to collaborate with partners in Europe, using its open source model.”
