Stories, Projects, and Progress in Photonic Packaging

Explore our latest stories below...

Innovation doesn’t happen in isolation, and our Photonic Packaging Blog is where we share the stories, partnerships, and breakthroughs shaping the future of photonics.

At Bay Photonics, we collaborate across the UK’s growing photonics network – from universities and research groups to pioneering technology companies – developing new ways to package, assemble, and scale advanced photonic devices.

Here, you’ll find updates on our Innovate UK projects, insights from our engineers, and news from within our facility at EPIC, Paignton. Whether it’s progress on quantum applications, semiconductor skills, or photonic integration, these articles reveal how we’re helping light the path for the next generation of photonic innovation.
