Founder Associate (gn) @ Photonic Chip Venture, Besançon, France

This is an Atlantic portfolio company. About the Venture We are building the photonic PCB, the piece of technology that takes integrated photonics to scale. After a decade of research into using light to move and manipulate information at the micrometer scale, we found that optical integration was the main bottleneck for building high-performance optical chips, so we set out to solve it. Our 3D optical interconnect solutions connect individual photonic components into working systems, and that work sits underneath the next wave of progress in AI, computing, sensing, and telecommunications. We think optical integration is one of the most important problems in photonics today, and we are building the foundation that future innovation can rest on.…
