End user trade media<br />

The <strong>Photonics21</strong> secretariat started a cooperation with a journalist responsible for editing photonics<br />

impact stories and tailoring them towards different end user trade media, for example, in the field of<br />

health, manufacturing and the automotive industry.<br />

<strong>Photonics21</strong> Twitter – social media channeling<br />

<strong>Photonics21</strong> communicated the latest news, impact stories and events via twitter. The national<br />

technology platforms for photonics as members of the EuroPho21 project consortium were asked to use<br />

the hashtags #PhotonicsPPP and #PhotonicsRegio when communicating relevant information via their<br />

twitter account., <strong>Photonics21</strong> started cooperation with the coordinators of the other Photonics PPP CSA<br />

projects funded under Horizon 2020 and FP7 and asked them to use #PhotonicsPPP and #PhotonicsRegio<br />

jointly when communicating their project activities. <strong>Photonics21</strong> currently has 1557 followers on its<br />

twitter account.<br />
