European Competition for Collaborative R&D Funding
Organic and large area electronics (also known as plastic electronics, printed electronics or organic electronics) allows electronic circuits and devices to be produced using relatively low cost printing processes onto any surface, whether rigid or flexible, and over large areas. It will lead to the creation of whole new generations of products such as conformable and rollable displays, large area efficient lighting, low cost solar cells, low-cost RFIDs and memories, flexible and environmental friendly batteries, etc. Its global market value is forecasted to increase from a little over €1 billion today to over €200 billion by 2027. Europe has a lead in the development of OLAE technology and has a vibrant emerging supply chain that must be supported and strengthened.
