Flexible Displays Development and Commercialization Efforts

 

Edzer Huitema is CTO of Polymer Vision, a company focused on research, development and commercialization of extremely thin flexible and foldable displays. Before joining Polymer Vision he worked at Philips on breakthrough research on flexible displays and organic electronics. He holds a PhD in Chemistry from the University of Utrecht and holds more than 170 patents and is author of more than 50 papers.

Flexible displays will enable electronic displays to appear in places and products where never before was possible. From Smartcards & eTickets, to folding displays in eReaders, Smartphones and Tablet PCs, flexible displays will fundamentally change the way we access and use electronic information. As the pioneer of the world's thinnest and most flexible displays, Polymer Vision is at the forefront of flexible display technology. Through Commercial Collaborations and Licensing, Polymer Vision plans to share this technology to enable others to create groundbreaking products and applications. Polymer Vision was founded as an independent company in 2006 as a spin out from Philips Electronics. In 2009 Polymer Vision became a subsidiary of Wistron, one of the world's leading ODMs. To exploit the company's technology and product design portfolio over the coming years, Polymer Vision is actively seeking investors and collaboration partners.
