For the Future of Organic and Large Area Electronics in Europe

Organic Electronics Entrepreneur Training Day

The objective is to enrol a maximum of 10 individuals or small teams with a preliminary business idea that they want to evaluate and develop further. In the morning we will have two real-life business case presentations and a presentation of what is required from a good business plan. In the afternoon the participants will work on their own ideas in small workshop settings. Workshops are facilitated by experienced mentors. The objective of the workshops is to produce a refined, business-plan-like version of each business idea plus a set of concrete action points to continue the process.

Organic Electronics Venture Forum

The objective is to enroll 15-20 presenting companies to present their business cases in front of 15-20 venture capital representative. At the moment we already have a number of VC companies registered and more will attend provided that the event attracts interest within SMEs. The OPERA Venture Forum will bring together ventures seeking new capital and private capital firms seeking investment opportunities. Especially new start-ups are encouraged to participate. However participation is not restricted to start-up’s per se. Presenting companies could also be at a further stage of their development path and can represent any part of OLAE value chain - from materials to commercial applications.
