According to DSCC CEO Ross Young, "The display industry is expected to enjoy one of its better years on record in 2021 with prices rising, shipments surging, new display technologies emerging promising better performance and capex and capacity surging in both existing and emerging technologies including LCDs, OLEDs, microLEDs and microOLEDs. To help companies and investors navigate the outlook and identify and quantify the best investment opportunities, we have assembled an agenda featuring 17 market and financial analysts and business leaders throughout the display supply chain including 16 C-Suite executives. In addition to sessions on the dominant display applications and technologies such as TVs, smartphones and IT displays, this year's event will also examine the outlook for emerging markets such as AR/VR, developments in emerging technologies which could significantly disrupt the display industry in miniLEDs and microLEDs and a session with start-up executives and private equity firms giving smaller private companies with significant potential the opportunity to share the stage with larger players."
