About EOSAM & Previous Events

The European Optical Society Annual Meeting (EOSAM) is a major international scientific conference with an exhibition and industrial program, held in a different location every year. The next  EOSAM will be held on 27-30 September 2027 in Wrocław, Poland. 

EOSAM is attended annually by around 500 top researchers, key leaders, students, and industry experts. 

After 2010 it was decided to move EOSAM around Europe, bringing the event into different optics hubs and at each time creating a unique EOSAM experience for the attendees. In 2020, the EOSAM was made into an annual event.
