SmartKem Signs Proof-of-Concept Deal with Global Consumer Electronics Leader for MicroLED Wearables

SmartKem Inc. has entered into a 12-month paid proof-of-concept agreement with a global consumer electronics leader to develop next-generation smart wearables featuring conformable MicroLED displays. The collaboration will leverage SmartKem’s proprietary organic thin-film transistor $(OTFT)$ technology to create thin, flexible, and power-efficient display backplanes optimized for wearables interfacing with smartphones. The project aims to deliver curved surface wearable devices with improved miniaturization, low power consumption, outdoor visibility, and impact resistance, using SmartKem’s “chip-first” architecture. If successful, this partnership could pave the way for scalable manufacturing of advanced wearable devices based on OTFT-based MicroLED technology.
