ITRI to recruit OLED lighting engineers to help boost OLED lighting development in Taiwan

In July 2014, Taiwan launched the OLED Lighting Commercialization Alliance (OLCA), with an aim to make Taiwan an important OLED lighting player. The OLCA is headed by ITRI institute, and today we hear reports that ITRI is going to recruit OLED engineers to boost the development of OLED technologies.

ITRI will recruit engineers in device design, production management, evaporation process, packaging, lighting module/system and production equipment. The OLCA alliance include members such as Merck, RiT Display, WiseChip, Corning, Tongtai Machine & Tool and the TLFEA (Taiwan Lighting Fixture Export Association).

Only an hour ago or so I posted that UBI sees a $4.7 billion OLED lighting market by 2020, saying that this forecast is the most optimistic one I've seen. But ITRI actually thinks the OLED lighting market will reach $10 billion by 2020, it's great to see them so upbeat on OLEDs.
