International Exhibition and Conference for the Printed Electronics Industry
Printed electronics: Less is (much) more. Foil building cladding which generates electricity, curved dashboard displays, ultra-thin batteries: Fascinating new products and solutions are always arising from the world of printed electronics. In a nutshell, the concept of printed electronics is to utilize printing instead of combining individual components. This allows parts and components to be as thin as films and surfaces, making them more compact and able to be implemented more flexibly than ever before. Whether in cars, energy generation, medicine, or clothing, printed electronics solutions are constantly opening up possibilities in new industries and application areas. To find out first hand where the industry and the science meet and discover what is set to come next, attend the world’s leading exhibition for this sector. Welcome to LOPEC 2018 in Munich!
