Annual Meeting
The fall quarterly meeting each year has a unique agenda where we focus on the photonics research being performed in our Colorado Universities. It also includes the annual Student Poster Contest where grad students present their research to judges from local companies. Students are judged on their ability to describe their project to someone outside their specific field and convince them of the need for their work.
At our annual meetings, CPIA has traditionally presented a Colorado Photonics Company of the Year award along with other awards that recognize innovation, service, volunteers and founders. See the list of previous award recipients.
