Transforming a science project into industrial reality
Indro Mukerjee, Plastic Logic CEO gives an insight into the creation of exciting new concepts, which sometimes lead to new technologies.
Going from concepts on slides through to actual first proof of concept and then real industrialisation is, however, a very rare journey indeed. Indro gives an insight into the Plastic Logic has industrialised the production of the first new transistor for decades and used this capability to create the world’s first mass produced flexible display.

In the words of the master…
"If no mistake have you made,
yet losing you are ... a different
game you should play."
"Always in motion is the future."
"So certain are you. Always
with you it cannot be done.
Hear you nothing that I say?"
"No! Try not. Do, or do not.
There is no try."
