innoLAE 2023

The 9th annual Innovations in Large-Area Electronics Conference (innoLAE 2023) was held at the Hinxton Hall Conference Centre, Cambridge, UK, 21-23 February 2023, delivering another key event in the large-area electronics calendar.

It was great to finally return to an in-person innoLAE conference. The conference attracts interest and engagement from researchers, manufacturers, integrators and users involved in large-area electronics (LAE) - a way of making electronics which includes printable, flexible, plastic, organic and bio- electronics. 

The innoLAE conference aims to host an equal balance of representatives from industry and academia. the conference creates an important platform for supporting innovation, building collaborations, sharing knowledge and, ultimately, promoting the growth of the field and advancing the state-of-the-art.
The conference also reached 20 countries worldwide.

This year the conference was again supported by short courses covering both wet and dry processing technologies for LAE, with both courses being well received and encouraging in depth discussions about LAE processes.

The expanding innoLAE programme highlighted the most recent, innovative and exciting aspects of large-area electronics through parallel presentation sessions, keynote addresses and poster presentations. Parallel track presentations covered the latest innovations in bioelectronics, novel devices & systems, applications enabled by advanced manufacturing, high performance materials for LAE, wearables for healthcare, sensors and advanced manufacturing processes and equipment.
