LOE spin-offs and collaboration with industry and the private sector

Due to the applied nature of much of LOE’s research, we are continuously engaged in projects with industry and the private sector

Organic electronic technologies such as cellulose-based energy storage, healthcare and therapeutic devices, and large-scale printed electronics have resulted in well-established industrial collaborations and spin-off companies.

As research is ongoing, we are always interested in broadening this collaboration, and welcome future discussion, interaction, and collaboration opportunities.

Major collaboration activities at LOE

WISE

LiU is home to Wallenberg Initiative Material Science for Sustainability – WISE. Sweden’s largest research programme in material science for a sustainable future. WISE is financed by the Knut and Alice Wallenberg Foundation.

RISE (Research Institutes of Sweden)

RISE is the national research institute infrastructure, combining multiple institutes, test beds, and demonstration environments under the umbrella of a single innovation partner. RISE and LOE are deeply intertwined, sharing lab and office space.
