1. Organic Thin-Film Transistor Technology – from Lab to Fab
SmartKem | Simon Ogier
OTFT technology is finding a good fit initially in applications requiring low temperature processing and is suitable for situations where low non-recurring investment (NRE) or capital infrastructure is required. Smartkem OTFT materials are processed with a low thermal budget and produce transistors with current driving capabilities suitable for a range of emissive displays such as AMOLED and micro-LED. This presentation will highlight application demonstrators and show the partnerships that are enabling scale up of the fabrication towards commercial scale production.

4. Wearable Photonic Sensors in Flexible and Stretchable Form Factor
Jussi Hiltunen | VTT
Recommended by LinkedIn
Medical device industry is a rapidly growing opportunity area for photonics technologies, with applications ranging from diagnostics to surgical tools and therapeutics. Real-time monitoring of vital parameters with unobtrusive wearable devices can minimize the time of patients in hospital and ultimately the technologies can enable a paradigm change from treatment-based healthcare towards preventive and participatory medicine. For example, optical monitoring of hearth rate, blood pressure, physical activity and other parameters can minimize risk for post-treatment complications and subsequent treatment costs and enhance the quality of life. Besides healthcare, in wellness applications wearable devices help citizens to better track, for example, the stress levels and thus optimize the amount and level of exercises. A key issue in the production of wearable devices with the maximized user comfortability, is the manufacturing process capable for assembling and integrating devices in flexible and stretchable form factors. At high volumes this can be made using multiple roll-to-roll fabrication processes covering printing of electrical wiring and stop&go component assembly. As an outcome the wearable photonic monitoring devices can be highly sophisticated acquiring multimodal data or low-cost plaster-type devices intended for a short term usage.
5.Scalable, Customizable, Multimodal Electrode Platform for Biosensors and Sensors
Christelle Robellin | Linxens
For over 15 years Linxens has manufactured hundreds of millions of PCB electrode arrays for Point-of-Care Diagnostics. This could be achieved thanks to a cutting-edge and robust reel-to-reel manufacturing process. Recent developments in electrode design, surface coating/functionalization, microfluidics and connectivity open up new fields of application in continuous monitoring of glucose, wound healing, water quality and sport performance etc.

6. Advancing Medical Technology: Printed Electronics and Hybrid Integration Pave the Way for Next-Generation Medical Devices
TNO at Holst Center | Natallia E. Uzunbajakava
Chronic diseases became a silent epidemic and are responsible for about 70% of deaths worldwide. Efforts are imperative to shift this distressing trend and make strides towards better health outcomes. Wearable technology holds vast untapped potential across healthcare continuum – from hospital to home.Printed electronics and hybrid integration offers a versatile technological toolbox to create next generation medical devices. Realizing this, however, necessitates navigating several substantial challenges – from further developing printed electronics & hybrid integration modalities to addressing the right user needs. With collaborative efforts among a diverse ecosystem of companies, institutes, and healthcare organizations, each bringing their unique areas of expertise, we are optimistic about overcoming these challenges.
7. Driving Reliability and Scalability in E-Textiles and Wearables via Embroidery Technology
Steliyan Vasilev | 3E Smart Solutions
Embroidery technology, once rooted in historic hand-stitched garment design, has experienced a remarkable resurgence with the advent of computerization. Due to its unparalleled capacity for material optimization, embroidery offers textile engineers the ability to precisely place single fibres, yarns, fibre bundles, or even wires in a pre-designed geometry. This precision makes embroidery an ideal candidate for integrating functionality into textiles through sensors, actuators, or electrodes. By enabling the automatic integration of conductive fibres and electronic components into textiles, embroidery technology facilitates the creation of e-textiles. This capability opens the door to a myriad of applications, ranging from ECG and EMS electrodes to capacitive, strain and pressure sensors, and even illumination systems and heating elements. Despite the longstanding development of e-textiles, the realization of market-ready products has been limited by high production costs and poor reproducibility resulting from manual production processes. The high degree of automations of embroidery technology, combined with the scalability enabled by multi-head machines, has revolutionized e-textile production. This automation not only reduces costs but also ensures consistent quality, paving the way for the widespread adoption of e-textiles in various industries.
