"As the host of a major event steeped in tradition, you want to offer all your guests something special.

It is both a privilege and an honor to serve as Congress General Chair for the 45th ICALEO conference—a gathering yet always at the forefront of progress. Alongside the exceptional LIA team, I am dedicated to making this year’s event not just memorable, but transformative: a place where ideas converge, boundaries are pushed, and the future of laser technology is written.
