PREIN - Photonics Research and Innovation Flagship

The Photonics Explorer Kit is donated to dozens of new schools in Finland! This unique educational package is designed to ignite interest in the mysteries of #physics and #photonics through hands-on learning. It provides teachers and students with tools to explore light in diverse and exciting ways. Donators: Vexlum, Photonics Finland, VTT plus PREIN donations from Tampere University, VTT, Aalto University and University of Eastern Finland. Donating a Photonics Explorer Kit (PEK) can open the door to a multitude of new opportunities for students across Finland. This is not just a donation to an educational package, but an investment in the future. By donating a PEK, you enable students to access an innovative learning environment that may inspire the future leaders of technology.
