Silmo Istanbul Akademik

Just like every year, Silmo Istanbul Akademik is set to elevate professional knowledge sharing to the highest level, aiming to guide the development of the optical industry on both national and international scales.
Taking place during the International Silmo Istanbul Optical Fair from November 19 to 22, 2025, this year’s Silmo Istanbul Akademik will feature broader participation and deeper content than ever before. The program brings together world-renowned professors in optics and optometry, along with expert speakers from Turkey and abroad, aiming to strengthen the industry's knowledge base and provide participants with a global perspective. Speakers from various countries will share insights from their own markets and introduce innovative approaches, offering attendees valuable international viewpoints.
As in previous years, the carefully curated academic environment will host four days of intensive knowledge exchange. Key topics such as current industry challenges, technological innovations, sustainability, artificial intelligence applications, digitalization, and customer experience will be explored in depth by leading experts. Rather than simply transferring existing knowledge, the program will offer forward-looking insights, inspiring transformative strategies for the future of the optical sector.
Silmo Istanbul Akademik 2025 also offers a unique opportunity for students pursuing a professional future in optics. Opticianry students, in particular, will gain strong sectoral foundations through specially designed content. By helping young professionals connect with the industry early, the event encourages them to become future leaders. More than an educational platform, Silmo Istanbul Akademik is a dynamic initiative that supports the intellectual growth of the optical sector, strengthens professional ties, and helps shape its vision through collective intelligence.
The Silmo İstanbul Akademik event schedule will be announced via our website and social media platforms.
