The MicroLED Industry Association (MIA) welcomes its newest members: ITRI, KETI, Nippon Sanso and Veeco. The association keeps growing steadily through 2026, adding both equipment suppliers and leading national research institutes, as interest in microLEDs increases and the industry matures.

The MIA aims to accelerate the adoption of microLED display technologies, bringing together companies, researchers and organizations active in the MicroLED industry and providing an ideal forum for solving common technology issues, fostering cooperation and sharing relevant information, resources and tools.

Ennostar reported its financial results for Q2 2026, with a 20% revenue growth, and an operation loss (but a net income due to an asset sale). Ennostar says that its operating loss was due to Intense competition and industry overcapacity.

Looking forward, Ennostar says it expects its microLED display business to grow "by multiples" from 2025, driven by higher demand for AR and VR microdisplays from its US and European customers.

MicroLED Connect 2026 is set to be the industry's premier event for microLED and next-generation display technologies, taking place on 16-17 September 2026 at the High Tech Campus in Eindhoven, The Netherlands, with a world-class agenda, exhibition and networking opportunities. The event spans three co-located tracks - MicroLED, AR/VR and Optical I/O - covering everything from microLED manufacturing and displays to AR/VR optics and optical interconnects for AI infrastructure.

Here are some of the speakers and themes from the MicroLED track. You can explore the full agenda and event details here.

AUO and faytech Tech has signed an MOU, to deepen their long-term business partnership centered on transparent microLED displays. The MOU formalizes cooperation across product development, integration, manufacturing, and go-to-market activities. AUO says that this new agreement will accelerate deployment of transparent microLED displays in commercial and industrial applications.

Under the agreement, AUO and faytech will collaborate on joint development projects that leverage AUO’s leading microLED display technologies and faytech’s global expertise in designing, manufacturing and servicing touch monitors, touch PCs and optical bonding. The partnership aims to deliver turn-key transparent display solutions that combine high optical performance with robust touch, bonding and system integration tailored for retail, transportation, hospitality, smart buildings and other high-traffic environments.

XGIMI unveiled its MemoMind One smart AI glasses in January 2026, and later in June launched a crowdfunding campaign. The MemoMind One now crossed the $1 million mark, with over 2,000 backers, with prices starting at $400 for the Standard edition.

The MemoMind One glasses, that do not have any cameras, utilize dual monochrome (green) microLED displays, that output 2,000 nits. These microdisplays are produced by JBD, see teardown video here.

Ennostar announced a major advance in its microLED based optical I/O development project, and demonstrated a new prototype that offers substantially higher modulation bandwidth compared to its previous effort, while simultaneously maintaining low power consumption and excellent thermal management

The company says that it was able to increase the single-channel -3 dB modulation bandwidth of its blue Micro LED to 2.1 GHz at a current density of 2 kA/cm². Ennostar's new demonstration also features a modulation bandwidth of up to 3.3 GHz at a current density of 5 kA/cm².

Taiwan-based IC developer Raydium Semiconductor announced its financial results for Q2 2026, with revenues of $211.8 million, up 25.4% from last quarter.  Net profit was $10.7 million, as the company's margins decreased due to significant increases in wafer foundry and packaging/testing costs.

During the conference call, Raydium revealed that it is developing a microLED TDDI driver, and its verification is nearing its end, as Raydium hopes to begin mass production by year-end.

UK-based Cubic GaN microLED developers Kubos Semiconductors announced that it has raised $2.1 million, to accelerate the development of its cubic-phase GaN platform. 

Kubos has raised over $8 million US to date, and the company says that the new round will enable it to enter the microLED market within 3 years, through IP licensing of its technology.

ams Osram posted its financial results for Q2 2026, with 805 million Euro in revenues, up slightly from last year. The company says it continues to evolve to a more focused photonics company.

As part of its update, ams Osram says that microLED microdisplay light engines for AR applications continued to achieve key development milestones. The company says that its microLED AR technology validates its performance leadership and is advancing step-by-step towards mass-production readiness. According to our report from October 2026, ams Osram is collaborating with Meta towards microLED microdisplays.
