Organic and Printed Electronics is a multi-applications field of technology that is expected to grow to a multi billion dollar industry within five years - creating new markets by taking advantage of unique features and by in some instances, supplanting conventional electronics by making use of one or more of the principal advantages of organic electronics such as flexibility, large-area, robustness, low cost and system integration possibilities.
The LOPE-C Investor Forum is organized and initiated by the OE-A in cooperation with the European Commission (DG INFSO), Germany Trade and Invest (GTAI), the European Investment Fund (EIF) and ACCESS ICT. It is the premier non‑commercial and must-attend forum for investors and companies seeking investment in organic and printed electronics. This optional event is positioned in the heart of LOPE-C in the middle between the Business Conference and the Main Conference.
At the LOPE-C Investor Forum you will meet companies along the entire organic and printed electronics value chain that are seeking funding.
