Think Extreme

This year the Sony CSL Symposium will be held on October 14th (Wed) as part of the Open House, with demonstrations following on the 15th (Thu.) and 16th (Fri).

As you may already be aware, Sony CSL was established 27 years ago with the intention of contributing to the development of society and industry by carrying out fundamental research with potential real-world applications (CSL Paris marks its 19th anniversary this year).

We hope that the Open House will serve as a venue for our researchers to share their latest activities, and to earn valuable insights from yourselves, and to discuss on how we can cooperate in making positive contributions to the actual world we live in.

We look forward to seeing you in October!
