FlexTech Alliance introduces wearable and disposable electronics users groups

SAN JOSE, USA: From toys and games, freshness sensors, body media, and medical devices to applications in outer space and high speed communications, flexible and printed electronics are changing the ways companies develop advanced products and packages to better serve their customers and gain a competitive advantage.

To speed adoption of these technologies into a broad range of industries, FlexTech Alliance announced the formation of users groups focused on two general application areas: wearable electronics and disposable electronics.

These groups will open the doors to a library of integration knowledge on cutting-edge flexible and printed electronics manufacturing techniques and solutions to challenges that always occur when new ideas are applied to practical implementation.

The users groups will promote exchanges of ideas on technology roadmaps and experiences in fielding products, create dialog with supply chain companies, and facilitate pre- and non-competitive collaboration on promising technical developments.
