The acquisition is part of Huawei’s strategy to enhance its European research and development capabilities, in particular in the silicon photonics-based optical solutions space.

Huawei will integrate Caliopa into its existing R&D center in Belgium. The deal, which was completed on Aug. 6, 2013, will give Huawei full ownership of Caliopa.

Caliopa is based in Ghent, Belgium, and will continue its strong partnership with UGent and imec following this acquisition.
