"We immediately spoke to the right person at Philips Innovation Services in the Netherlands. They were kind enough to show us around. We found that they had dedicated an entire building to the testing facility we needed from them. They optimised the design and performed simulations. In our field, groundbreaking innovations mostly come from small companies. It is nice to notice facilities are taking that into account."

Our customers in the news: Holst Centre & Philips Research

Since 2005, Philips Research and a growing amount (35) of other industrial partners combine their innovation power at Holst Centre, an open-innovation initiative by imec (B) and TNO (NL), to take technology in the areas of wireless sensors and flexible electronics to the next level. In over 5 years, scientists achieved substantial scientific progress, resulting in several technology breakthroughs. Philips Research was co-author of over 20 of Holst Centre’s patent filings and more than 100 technical notes. Recent successes like the first large-area (30x30cm2) flexible OLED lighting device (developed in the EU project Fast2light), the novel wireless EEG sensing technology and a power conditioning circuit for miniaturized sensors encouraged Holst Centre and Philips Research to prolong their existing collaboration agreement until the end of 2015.
