LOPEC 2027 to Showcase Future of Flexible and Printed Electronics in Munich

06 November 2026: LOPEC 2027, the world’s leading international exhibition and conference for flexible, organic and printed electronics, will take place from 2-4 March 2027 at the ICM – International Congress Center Messe München, Germany. The exhibition will be held on 3-4 March, while the technical conference will run from 2-4 March 2027.

Jointly organised by Messe München and the Organic and Printed Electronics Association (OE-A), LOPEC provides an international platform connecting technology manufacturers, material suppliers, equipment developers, researchers, industrial users and electronics industry professionals.

The event will showcase developments across the entire printed electronics value chain, including conductive inks, functional materials, flexible substrates, manufacturing equipment, printing processes, electronic components, inspection systems and integrated applications.

Advancing Printed Electronics Technologies

LOPEC 2027 will highlight how advanced printing technologies are transforming conventional electronics manufacturing. Screen printing, inkjet printing, gravure, flexographic and roll-to-roll processes are increasingly supporting the production of lightweight, flexible and functional electronic components.

Applications include printed sensors, flexible displays, smart labels, wearable electronics, membrane switches, printed batteries, photovoltaic devices, conductive circuits and intelligent packaging.

The exhibition will particularly emphasise emerging opportunities in automotive electronics, healthcare, consumer electronics, industrial automation, smart textiles, energy management and connected devices.

International Conference and Technology Exchange

An important highlight will be the LOPEC Conference, bringing together international industry experts, scientists and technology developers to discuss advances in materials, manufacturing processes, applications and commercialisation.

Technical presentations and industry discussions will address emerging technologies, production scalability, sustainability, product development and the transition from laboratory innovations to industrial manufacturing.

The OE-A Competition 2027 will also showcase innovative prototypes, new products and demonstrators, recognising technological achievements in flexible and printed electronics.

Global Industry Participation

LOPEC 2026 attracted 158 exhibitors from 29 countries and approximately 2,500 visitors from over 40 countries, demonstrating the event’s international importance.

For screen printing machinery manufacturers, ink producers, substrate suppliers and industrial printing companies, LOPEC 2027 will offer opportunities to explore high-value functional printing applications and establish international technology partnerships.

With increasing demand for miniaturised, flexible and energy-efficient electronic products, LOPEC 2027 is expected to provide valuable insights into emerging markets, manufacturing innovations and future business opportunities. The event will reinforce the expanding role of printing technologies in next-generation electronics manufacturing.
