Our Vision

BEYOND PAPER

For the past 4 millennia humans have been using paper to tell stories, to communicate, to draw, to print, and even to quickly test for diseases. Now, with the exponential increase in the need for flexible, low-cost and sustainable electronic devices for the internet of things (IOT), and developments in the ability to rapidly mass print electronic devices on paper, a new era of paper electronics is about to start.​​
