23 PROJECT SCOPE Supply Chain Opportunity for Printed Electronics applying highly automated integration techniques to eventually meet target costs of <1c/NFC tag. bringing the technology supply-chain together with integrators, convertors and end users. And providing the means for end-users to find, qualify and engage partners to develop their product concepts, to prove feasibility and market appeal for products. enabling pilot-scale commercial deployment and subsequent transfer to volume production. providing a sustainable platform to develop increasingly advanced functionality for NFC enabled products, whilst also delivering recyclability of products not possible with conventional electronics.
