'The Lithuanian high-tech sector is becoming increasingly active in global value chains. Even in challenging international trade conditions, our companies are finding ways to establish themselves in markets such as the United States. This demonstrates their technological potential and ability to not only enter the global market, but also grow within it," said the Minister of the Economy and Innovation, L. Savickas.
During the visit, the minister discussed Light Conversion's expansion plans, opportunities to strengthen cooperation with local industrial companies and ways to boost competitiveness in local and international markets with the heads of the US division.
The new Light Conversion laboratory is located in Silicon Valley, California. It will develop and test advanced laser processing solutions for manufacturing semiconductors, electronics, medical devices, and other high-value products. The technologies implemented in the laboratory will enable industrial customers to test laser system applications under real conditions, accelerating their integration into manufacturing processes.
This division complements the Light Conversion USA representative office, which has been operating in Montana since 2006, strengthening the company's position in one of its key export markets: the United States.
Light Conversion is one of the world leaders in the field of ultra-short pulse lasers.The company's laser systems are used by more than 9,000 scientific and industrial customers around the world, including all of the top 50 universities, such as Harvard, MIT, Yale and Columbia.
