RiTDisplay is a Taiwanese company, manufacturing PMOLED panels. RiT has been spun-off from Ritek, that still holds a majority stake. RiTDisplay is one of the world's largest PMOLED makers.
RiTDisplay went public in 2016, following a strong rise in PMOLED demand. The company is trading in the Taipei Stock Exchange (8104:TT). Beyond its own displays, the company is also producing Futaba's PMOLEDs.
In June 2011 it was reported that RiTDisplay is collaborating with IGNIS on AMOLED panel production on a-Si backplanes. That project never took off, though. In 2024, RiT announced a partnership with SmartKem to develop OTFT-driven AMOLEDs by 2024.

The PMOLED Industry: A Strategic Entry Point for Supply Chain Companies
The Passive Matrix Organic Light Emitting Diode (PMOLED) industry represents a compelling opportunity for supply chain companies seeking to enter the broader OLED ecosystem. The PMOLED sector offers a more accessible entry point compared to the highly competitive Active Matrix OLED (AMOLED) market.
This industry, while smaller than its AMOLED counterpart, provides unique advantages for suppliers including lower barriers to entry, faster development cycles, and opportunities to establish relationships that can scale to larger OLED markets. Article summary:

Smartkem and RiTDisplay sign an MoU to evaluate the OTFT process at a 2.5-Gen pilot AMOLED line transferred from ITRI
UK-based OTFT display backplane developer Smartkem announced a non-binding memorandum of understanding (MoU) with PMOLED maker RiTdisplay to evaluate the integration of Smartkem's OTFT process on RiTdisplay's 2.5-Gen pilot line for AMOLED production.
Smartkems announced a joint development agreement with RiTdisplay back in 2021, and in 2024 it signed a collaboration agreement with RiTDisplay for the production of OTFT-based AMOLED displays. This new MoU marks, according to Smartkem, a "significant progression in the collaboration work" between the two companies. Under the MoU, product prototyping capabilities will be transferred from ITRI's Gen2.5 line to a newly integrated Gen2.5 pilot line at RiTdisplay. The parties expect that the RiTdisplay line will be available for use in the second half of 2025.
