  3. Outline • Background and vision • - Li-Rong Zheng (7 min) • The need for iPack center – an industrial view • From system and end-user’s perspective • - Stina Ehrensvärd /Cypak (7min) • From forest industry perspective • - Magnus Wikström / Korsnäs (7min) • Innovation and renewal • Paper and Packaging - Bruce Lyne (7min) • Electronics and System - Hannu Tenhunen (7min) • Innovation Strategy of iPack Center • - Li-Rong Zheng (7 min) • Q & A (all)

  4. Background The Vinnex iPack Center is Proposed by • KTH - the leader • Research Institutes – STFI & YKI • Industrial Partners: - System and bio-medical - Electronics - Forest products Future …

  5. General Background: Ubiquitous Intelligence 2005 2015 • Ubiquitous Intelligence – The General Vision • embedded smart systems in almost everything, virtually talk to each other • interact with people adaptively, cleverly hidden, user (human) -centric • ad hoc spontaneous networks, much larger than today’s internet • The next driving force after internet • convergence of wireless, IT, nano, bio-, … • new applications, new business opportunities

  6. iPack Center’s Focus i-Package for food & pharmacy: safety, quality etc Paper board Smart Bandage: easy, quick, smart i-Patch: wireless patient monitoring and therapy devices

  8. iPack Vision A national hub of multidisciplinary collaboration that • Brings Swedish existing and successful technical platforms together(Forest, biomedical, and electronics industries) • Creates innovations through users, technology suppliers, and researchers interactions • Emphasizes usability and manufacturability of the technologies • Conducts world-class research and creates new business opportunities

  9. The need for iPack Center from System and End-Users Perspective-- Stina Ehrensvärd, Cypak AB

  10. Cypak – Paperboard Computer Technologies Cypak Intelligent Pharmaceutical Packaging integrated in a Novartis product • Swedish innovator and provider of “Intelligent RFID” technology - components, methods and designs • Customers in international pharmaceutical, diagnostic and logistic industry • Awarded by European Commission, Fortune Magazine and Swedish IT-industry

  11. Why iPack is of interest to Cypak ? • Interact with technology suppliers in multidisciplinary competence areas • Access to state-of-the-art technologies • State-of-the-art “know-how” • Meet different researchers, inspiration, creation and innovation

  12. The need for iPack Center from Swedish Forest Industry Perspective-- Magnus Wikström, Korsnäs AB

  13. iPack from a forest industry perspective Sweden’s paper industry facing major challenges • Escalating competition from BRICS countries • Energy costs • Changes in distribution of goods and information Necessary actions • Further develop established business areas to remain competitive • We know how to do that! • Development new complementary business areas • by crosslinking our resources, knowledge and infrastructure with other technically advanced industrial sectors, eg. microelectronics • Not obvious how we do this - need for more success stories as leading examples

  14. Why iPack is of interest for Korsnäs • Potential for innovation related to new functionalities for packages • Learn more about specific demands on packaging materials for these applications • Complementary project partners from different positions in the value chain • Learn how to utilize other industrial sectors for common product development – iPack is a pilot • Access to international talents

  15. Innovation and Renewal(from Paper and Package Perspective)Bruce Lyne, YKI

  16. Smart Label Road Map Smart Active Label integrated battery, active sender, sensors, timer and actors, passive & active RF-interface Smart Active Label integrated battery, sensor and timer, passive RF-interface Data Memory Reader controlled Extended Data Memory Reader controlled Passive Label extended memory Data Collection Autonomous system extended long range Data Collection Autonomous system Passive Label data storage read/write functionality

  17. Ink Jet Printing of Electronic Circuits

  18. Inkjet Printing of Non-Volatile Memory Arrays The eye catcher foil

  19. Innovation and Renewal(from Electronics and System Perspective)Hannu Tenhunen, KTH

  20. Control & Signal Communication Paper & Processing & Services Bio - Sensor & Packaging Micro - Fluidics Expertise Manufacture Radio & Bio - Medical & Production Monitoring RFID System Integration Networking Vinnex iPack Center Heterogeneous System Integration and Technology Fusion • KTH/STFI/YKI: good history of working together • Industrial partners: centered around Stockholm • Geographic proximity of the players • Unique interdisciplinary model for the center

  21. Printed Solder Printed Adhesive Innovative Electronic Manufacture and Assembly Process • Low Cost and high Speed

  22. paper Decomposable Electronics and Environmentally Friendly • Laminated Paper PCB • Embedded Chips in Paper • Lead-Free Solders and Interconnections ”Smart dust” not ”smart garbage” ! Decomposable & Recyclable, Environmentally Friendly Paper was actually used for electronics in 1950s!

  23. Innovation Strategy of the iPack Center

  24. A Focused Common Goal - Prototyping • Maintain a common goal via joint prototyping • Recursive innovation for every new generation of prototyping

  25. 3G 2G 2G 4G 4G 1G 1G 3G Center Continuity: A Recursive Process New Partners System & Users EU Year 2016 RFIG EU Vinnex iPack Center NIC Year 2006 New Partners Tech Suppliers

  26. Potential Impact • Strengthen SMEs’ Competitiveness • Active spin-offs in this innovative area • Industry: Know-how • Renew of industry

  27. Complementary to Vinnex BiMac Center • Vinn Excellence Bi-Mac Center: - Focus on paper/material development - Partners in forest industry • Vinn Excellence iPack Center: - Focus on multidisciplinary system integration (using paper board and end with system) - Partners: System and bio-industry (10) Electronics industry (7) Forest products industry (3)

  28. Gender and Equality Aspects Recruitment of Excellent Female Researchers and Ph.D. students: • Biomedical: not an issue so far • Paper: OK so far • Electronics: need more effort, recruit from global basis In General, total number of female students/researchers will somewhat be balanced from 3 different areas
