The CTTC Optical Networking Area started its technology transfer activities in 2008, once it had consolidated its position as a strategic partner for Industry-funded projects in optical networking technologies. If you are interested in considering the CTTC Optical Networking Area for an Industry-funded project proposal, please contact us. Since then, the Optical Networking Area has participated in the following projects:
