company with its head office in Oslo and product development in Linköping,
Sweden. Thinfilm is a pioneer in the field of Printed Electronics, and provides
fully-printed non-volatile, rewritable memory for applications in toys & games,

The Printed Electronics market is still in its early stages, and according to
industry analyst group IDTechEx, is expected to grow to more than USD 50 billion
in market value over the next ten years. IDTechEx predicts that logic (i.e.,
memory and transistors) will be the largest segment in this market.
Using printing to manufacture electronic memory makes it possible to reduce the
number of process steps, dramatically reduce manufacturing costs, as well as the
environmental impact as compared to traditional semiconductor processes.
