The FlexTech Alliance (formerly known as USDC) is pleased to announce its Fall Quarterly Technology Flexible Printed Electronics Workshop, scheduled for Tuesday, November 18^th, hosted by Hewlett Packard Labs, in Palo Alto, CA.

The brightest spot in the economy today is green energy, and thin film and flexible photovoltaics are the fastest growing subsector of green energy. The Flexible, Printed Photovoltaics Workshop will identify opportunities to develop solutions to bring higher quality flexible and printed photovoltaics to market faster, easier and at lower cost by addressing and identifying key challenges in substrate technology, barriers, materials, and process integration for flexible and printed electronics with a specific emphasis on photovoltaic applications.

Please join leading technologists from photovoltaics producers, materials and tool manufacturers, as well as prominent universities and laboratories for a great networking event, a chance to collaborate with other experts in your field, and the opportunity to make a significant contribution towards moving the emerging flexible printed electronics industry closer to commercialization.

On Monday, November 17^th, there will be a late afternoon tour at Applied Materials and a networking dinner afterwards. The Workshop on Tuesday will conclude with a tour of HP Labs.

Attendance at the workshop is limited, so please contact Kay Mascoli (kay.mascoli@flextech.org) as soon as possible to confirm your attendance.
