Menlo Systems, the Germany-based pioneer and leading manufacturer of the optical frequency comb technology, announces the opening of its Japanese subsidiary メンローシステムズ株式会社 Menlo Systems K.K. in Hamamatsu. "The local presence is a statement of Menlo Systems’ strong commitment to our customers and partners. We are excited to develop the Japanese market,” says Dr. Ida Z. Kozma, the parent company's vice president of sales and marketing and representative director of Menlo Systems K.K.

By offering sales and service support directly from the new local office, Menlo Systems reacts to the growing demand and importance of the Japanese high-tech industry and photonics community, and specifically to the emerging commercialization of the quantum technologies as ongoing on the global scale. Besides its main product line of the optical frequency combs, Menlo Systems provides ultra-stable lasers, terahertz systems, and femtosecond lasers.
