Advantages of Chemical/Material Suppliers for the Electronic Industry Insignificant capital investment compared with TFT and semiconductor foundry Once well recognized by the technical world as the enabling technology/product: Very attractive profit margin Very low operational expenses Very low expense for product promotion High entrance barrier for new comers

Worldwide FPD Market - Most key materials/components are controlled by Japanese and US companies.

Cost Structure of a 40” LCD TV The material cost accounts for 75% of the total manufacturing cost. ---Information Display, 22(2), p 12 (2006)--- Great opportunities for Chemicals/Material Scientists & Engineers

Issues for Chemical/Material Startups General Issues: Huge upfront capital expenses: equipment for analytical, QA/QC, characterization, product & process development, pilot plant…etc. Huge environmental expenses: Hood, waste (gas, water, solid) handling, safety equipment…etc Long product development cycle time : 5-10 years (>3-5 years) Difficult to raise funding For Electronic applications (Semiconductors & Displays)  Long product qualification time (1-2 years)  Short product life time (could be <1 year)  The product is often an insignificant cost factor in the final device (could be <1%, mostly <5%)  Very high entrance barrier to nail down the 1st customer  Hidden competition from (potential) customer’s vertical integration
