Poland-based QD developer QNA Technology announced that it has raised 13 million PLN (just over 3.1 million Euros) to commercialize its quantum dots synthesis and production technology. The company optimizes its QDs for two applications: electroluminescence display devices (QD-EL) and for microLED displays devices based on UV microLEDs.

QNA says that it has been able to develop high quality materials that can be synthesized on a large scale, and it is collaborating with global display industry leaders to bring these materials to market. The company built an experimental medium-scale pilot synthesis line, which it is now validating. The new line allows QNA to gain insights into efficiency and production costs, as the company aims to design and construct a larger-scale production synthesis line in the future.

We are delighted to announce that the preliminary agenda for MicroLED-Connect 2025 (and AR/VR-Connect 2025) is now available. The second annual flagship display conference will take place in Eindhoven, The Netherlands, on September 24-25, 2025, featuring a world-class agenda. Keynote companies include Google, Meta, Intel, PlayNitride, and JBD, alongside dozens of companies from the complete microLED and AR display supply chain. The agenda is still evolving and the final agenda will be announced in the following months.
 

Following the resounding success of the 2024 event, MicroLED-Connect 2025 sets out to be even more impactful, with an expanded agenda. Expect an exciting trade show that includes a high-end conference, lively exhibition, the yearly MicroLED Industry Association dinner,  and a first day of masterclasses and tours. This event offers the best opportunity to connect with the microLED industry and its entire value chain—from epiwafer to final applications, through production processes, materials, equipment, and novel technologies. It's a unique chance to learn the latest innovations from the global industry and community.

MicroLED-Connect and AR/VR-Connect will also feature an investor panel, bringing leading VCs on stage to discuss the current status of the microLED industry, share their views on the display industry, and provide guidance for early-stage companies on approaching investors effectively.
 

We eagerly anticipate your participation, and you can register to MicroLED-Connect now, enjoy our early bird pricing and access our online events and recordings.

China-based Innovision, developer of microLED microdisplays based on the company's vertically-stacked pixel (VSP) technology, announced that it has started to produce microdisplays in its production line. 

Innovision started building its production line in March 2024, and soon afterwards the company demonstrated an XGA vertically-stacked full color display, that offers a brightness of over 500,000 nits.

In August 2023, China-based BOE HC Semitek started building its $700 million microLED epiwafer production line in Jinwan District, Zhuhai, China. In October 2024, the company announced that it started producing sample wafers.

A few days ago the company held a ceremony as it is starting to mass produce 6-inch microLED wafers, as the project enters its commercial stage. BOE now has a full microLED industry chain, from epiwafers to modules and applications.

Hisense launched its first microLED TV, the 163" UX MicroLED TV, available in China only. The TV costs $110,000 (799,999 Yuan) and offers brightness of up to 10,000 nits, VRR, AMD FreeSync Premium Pro, Dolby Vision IQ, HDR10+ and a color gamut of 98% DCI-P3.

It is reported that the refresh rate is 3,840Hz "at the pixel level", but likely the real refresh rate is closer to 120Hz.

NewSight Reality announced its next-generation transparent optical display module, the TOMM2. This is a see-through near eye display, that is meant to be used in front of the eye, placed  located within the eyeglass lens within millimeters of the pupil of the user’s eye.

The TOMM2 near-eye transparent display uses microLED chip produced by Mojo vision. We do not have any technical deatils on these microLEDs.

In Displayweek 2024, Tianma demonstrates several microLED prototypes, including a 7.6" 167 PPI (1204x398) 5,000 nits microLED display based HUD. The display was first developed in 2023.

Tianma now announced that it has developed a second generation HUD display, tha achieves double the brightness (10,000 nits). The company refers to this display as the 8 MicroLED IRIS HUD display. Tianma also said that the new display offers a "refined and compact design that provides greater flexibility for automotive interior integration", and it also boasts "significantly enhanced image quality, featuring more vibrant colors and richer details".

The MicroLED Industry Association is introducing a new tiered membership pricing structure that reflects its commitment to fostering innovation across the entire microLED ecosystem. This updated approach is designed to support organizations of all sizes, from established industry leaders to promising startups and cutting-edge research institutions.

The new membership Pricing Tiers, by yearly revenues:

• Large companies (over $100 million): $3,000 per year
• Medium level enterprises ($5-100 million): $1,500 per year
• Early stage and small companies (up to $5 million): $800 per year
• Research groups and Universities: $500 per year

This tiered structure ensures that membership remains accessible to a diverse range of organizations, recognizing the varied landscape of the rapidly evolving industry. By offering more affordable options for smaller entities and research groups, the association aims to encourage broad participation and collaboration within the microLED community.
