The Karlsruhe-based high-tech firm’s new prototype OLED technology persuades the CyberForum jury.

Karlsruhe – cynora GmbH once again wins a CyberForum award: at the High-Tech Entrepreneur Congress 2012 (“Hightech. Unternehmer. Kongress 2012”) held in Karlsruhe on November 21st, 2012, cynora was presented with the init Innovation Award, a special category of the CyberChampions Awards 2012. cynora had received recognition in the same forum in 2010, winning the Special Award of the State of Baden-Wurttemberg. The deciding factor for this year’s jury was the pioneering and innovative research in the area of organic electronics. Specifically, cynora was recognized for succeeding with the first-time manufacture of a flexible, structured OLED prototype earlier this year in spring. This innovation marks a major milestone for the company in the development and application of flexible components for organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs).

“We are very proud to have yet again won an award at the CyberChampions Awards,” CEO Dr. Tobias Grab happily acknowledges. “The jury recognized the immense potential of our research and that we have made a decisive leap forward since winning the award two years ago.“ cynora’s prototype paves the way for flexible and ultrathin displays, transparent and laminar light sources as well as smart packaging. A short video on cynora and its work on organic semiconductor materials produced for the CyberForum awards can be called up here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BYoIr0Inwkg.

At just under 1,000 members, the CyberForum, is a not-for-profit association and one of the largest regional networks for high-tech entrepreneurs in Germany. The annual CyberForum Awards recognize fresh start-ups and expanding innovation companies from the greater tech area around Karlsruhe for their high level of innovation and entrepreneurial spirit. Besides cynora, the 2012 winners are Honestly MT GmbH in the NewComer category and Videmo Intelligente Videoanalyse GmbH & Co. KG in the HighPotentials category.

About cynora:
Founded in 2003, cynora GmbH came under new management in 2008. The company focuses on researching innovative organic semiconductors whose physical properties as illuminants destine them for organic light-emitting diode (OLEDs) applications. From designing new functional modules for OLEDs and solar cells all the way to manufacturing these components in a lab environment as well as testing them for physical suitability with advanced measurement technology and methods, cynora covers the entire spectrum of material and component development.

Besides exploring new ways of achieving additional efficiency gains, the young and dynamic team behind cynora with at the moment 14 employees also works on improving key aspects of OLED applications, such as cost-effective processing and life-expectancy. Printing optoelectronic components requires new, intelligent materials and approaches. Resulting products can be used as displays, light sources, design objects and solar cells for energy generation.
