I believe XTouch has great potential to create the thinnest, lightest and most cost effective touch sensor solution. An important attribute of XTouch is the ability to bend the material, with no loss of performance, for curved applications. I believe we are at the leading-edge for flexible displays as these applications are increasingly adopted in the coming years. This is an exciting time to join UniPixel as we focus on developing new customers and driving revenue growth from our Taiwan operations."

Critical Minerals: The New Power Play in Global Trade
10/13/2025 | Marcy LaRont, I-Connect007Access to critical minerals essential for electronics manufacturing, and China’s monopoly of them, is increasingly under scrutiny, with gallium (Ga) and germanium (Ge)at the forefront of this discourse. However, all critical minerals imported from China share a similar narrative, and understanding the implications of this dependency and the risks to both U.S. commercial and defense sectors has created an urgent need for a comprehensive electronics strategy to secure and diversify access to these vital minerals. In this candid interview, USPAE Executive Director Jim Will discusses the issues and the mitigation steps that must be taken to adequately address them.
