The Scottish Optoelectronics Association (SOA) was established in 1994 to represent the optoelectronics community in Scotland. The community's vision is that the Scottish optoelectronics community will exceed global growth rates through market-leading exploitation of research, entrepreneurial spirit and product development for economic benefits.
Over 85 organisations have become members of the Association since its launch comprising companies, universities and research organisations all of whom have an interest in developing the optoelectronics industry in Scotland.
