Large Area Electronics: addressing the applications challenge

CIKC will be hosting a showcase of recent progress towards the commercial application of large-area electronics on 18th December 2012 at the Hauser Forum, Cambridge.
At this seminar, leading speakers from industry and academia will describe the challenges and opportunities for new low temperature manufacturing techniques in photonics and electronics as they transition from the laboratory to the marketplace. There will be opportunities for companies to showcase their own technology, and networking opportunities throughout the day.
