Voucher awarded to Firefly Sensing

Firefly Sensing has been awarded a NanoLabNL voucher granting access to the cleanroom facilities in Eindhoven. The voucher became effective in July 2026 and enables the company to make use of advanced infrastructure to further accelerate the development of its sensor technology. The voucher was presented by Wilbert Rooijakkers, cleanroom manager in Eindhoven, to Don van Elst, CTO and co-founder of Firefly Sensing.

Don van Elst: “Photonics sensing technology requires advanced processing equipment, which can make it difficult for startups to get off the ground. The NanoLab voucher allows us to keep momentum in the early phase and iterate our sensor designs fast. Being able to develop our innovation close-by home will accelerate us towards the market.”

Firefly Sensing develops innovative sensor technology for the analysis of liquid composition. Access to the cleanroom facilities enables the company to manufacture prototypes and develop new fabrication processes, supported by the expertise and infrastructure available at NanoLabNL.
