Wave Photonics eyes Singapore as Asian quantum hub

What happened

UK photonic integrated circuit (PIC) startup Wave Photonics is expanding in Asia and, despite partnerships with the Hon Hai Research Institute (HHRI) and Taiwan-based EDA companies, is considering Singapore as a potential regional base. The company said Singapore offers a concentration of integrated photonics foundries, government support for quantum technology, and proximity to Malaysia's photonics cluster, helping it connect with Asia's supply chain. This is a contemplated expansion plan and has not been confirmed as implemented.
