FlexEnable has been named in the cofinitive #21toWatch campaign. The award recognises the People, Companies, and the ‘Things’ that they create that are setting the standards in innovation and entrepreneurship across globe. FlexEnable has been recognised for its groundbreaking flexible OLCD (Organic Liquid Crystal Display) technology, which enables low-cost, large area glass-free LCDs that can be conformed and wrapped around almost any surface.
On Tuesday 9th June during an online live broadcast FlexEnable’s Strategy Director, Dr Paul Cain, had the opportunity to speak in front of a large audience, many of whom were investors, entrepreneurs and business leaders.
cofinitive’s founder Faye Holland said “We are so pleased that FlexEnable has been named in our Top21.2020 #21toWatch list, the accolade is well deserved and we look forward to following their progress.”
“Over the past 12 months we’ve continued to collate hundreds of submissions in response to our #21toWatch campaign and the criteria we set was pretty tough: each submission, whether it was a company, individual or ‘thing’ that they create, had to demonstrate a set of attributes: Innovation; Challenge; Influence; Viability; and Memorability. What all our winners have in common is something that has the potential for huge impact or a personal, company or product basis,” Faye continued.
Dr Paul Cain, Strategy Director of FlexEnable said “We are delighted to be named in cofinitive’s Top21.2020 #21toWatch list. Our flexible electronics technology brings greater design freedom by enabling non-flat and non-rectangular displays that can be seamlessly integrated into products. Designed to be manufactured at low cost in existing LCD factories and repurposing existing equipment, OLCD has the potential to replace flat glass displays across an $80 billion addressable market, redefining where and how we use active surfaces in our lives.”
