Morphotonics raises €40M for AI-glasses optics

Netherlands-based Morphotonics raised more than €40 million in Series B financing, including a €20 million convertible loan from the European Investment Bank, to scale large-area nanoimprint-lithography platforms for AI glasses, AR waveguides, and photonic components. The EIB financing announcement says the process is meant to move optical-component production toward consumer-electronics scale, not that Morphotonics has already solved volume manufacturing. For builders betting on wearables or optical interconnects, this is a manufacturing-capacity signal to track alongside the archive’s Lumilens optics qualification: qualify yield and throughput, not funding headlines.
