ICONS (ICfo Organization and Network of Students) offers a week full of activities related to photonics for 30 high school students in Catalonia.

This workshop which will be held from the 4th to 7th of September 2012 at ICFO, is a collaboration between ICONS and ICFO’s Outreach Team and has the support of SPIE, the international Association of Optics and Photonics.
