Large-Area Electronics (LAE) is a new way of making electronics and includes printed, flexible, plastic, organic and bio- electronics. LAE has the potential to both open up new markets for electronics and to expand existing products by adding new form factors, new functionality and enabling new cost structures. Applications abound in high growth industrial sectors such as healthcare and medical, sport and fitness, fast moving consumer goods, automotive, the Internet of Everything, printing and packaging and smart wearables.

innoLAE 2019 represents a unique opportunity to hear the latest developments from academic and industrial teams active in LAE research and technology, including keynotes and invited talks from leading international organisations.

Our fifth annual conference, innoLAE 2019 will be on January 22-23, 2019 at the Wellcome Genome Campus, Cambridge, UK, presenting a varied 2-day programme featuring contributions from academia and industry, highlighting the most recent and exciting innovations in LAE and new products incorporating LAE technologies. innoLAE 2019 will offer both plenary and parallel track oral presentations, a poster session with prizes awarded to the most promising scientific and technical developments, an exhibition with leading companies and organizations showcasing their latest products and developments, and networking opportunities, including a reception and a conference gala dinner at Queens’ College, Cambridge, UK.

We invite contributions to the conference programme on topics relating to LAE such as:

• Manufacturing of Large-Area Electronics:
novel manufacturing processes, manufacturing on non-traditional substrates, scaling up manufacturing

• High performance materials for LAE:
e.g. organic semiconductors, metal oxides, 2D and layered materials, quantum dots, stretchable and biocompatible materials

• Novel devices and architectures for LAE:
e.g. transistors, sensors, optical emitters and detectors, energy harvesting and storage, circuit elements

• LAE systems:
including flexible displays, stretchable and conformable electronics, hybrid electronics

• Applications of LAE:
e.g. IoT, healthcare, automotive, packaging, smart buildings

• Bioelectronics:
LAE devices and systems for bioelectronics

• Circular economy and LAE:
end-of-life, waste management, recycling and reuse of LAE materials, components and systems
