With the support of the IZTECH Optics and Photonics Society and the IEEE IZTECH Photonics Society, we welcomed Mr. Erken Özkan from SAMM Teknoloji, who provided detailed insights into the company’s mission, vision, and current and planned R&D activities. Additionally, Mr. Ferit Çam shared valuable information about internship and job opportunities with our students. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to both speakers for their time and the invaluable knowledge they shared.

The event concluded with a visit to our undergraduate and research laboratories, during which potential collaboration topics were also discussed.
