During the past years, organic and large-area electronics (OLAE) has become a disruptive technology that will enable next-generation products within areas such as information technology, energy, healthcare, entertainment, sports&fitness, smart fabrics, packaging, and advertising industry solutions. Intelligent packages, low cost RFID (radiofrequency identification) transponders, rollable displays, flexible solar cells, lighting, disposable diagnostic devices, interactive games, and printed batteries are just a few examples of promising fields of applications (see attachment for further information). OLAE materials have unique properties allowing thin, light-weight, flexible, conformable and environmentally friendly products with new form factors and novel applications. It also enables a wide range of electrical components that can be produced in high volumes (e.g., by printing) and can be directly integrated into products used in every day life.   

As part of European Network of Excellence in Organic and Large Area Electronics (OLAE) “PolyNet” commitment to providing state of the art research services and transferring scientific results to innovations we will organise an Industrial Workshop. This WS is geared towards leading companies in the area and will allow PolyNet to better understand and respond to your needs around development and commercialisation of Organic and Large Area Electronic’s products. We'd like to thank you in advance for showing interest in PolyNet and hope to receive your valuable input during this WS.
