LINKÖPING, Sweden, May 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Polar Light Technologies AB (“Polar Light”), a global leader in MicroLED and NanoLED technology, today announced that it has signed its first Pilot Line agreement with VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland. The collaboration marks a significant milestone in Polar Light’s roadmap to bring its first MicroLED products from laboratory development to pilot-scale manufacturing.

As part of the agreement, Polar Light has already begun its process flow transfer from the laboratory to VTT’s Pilot Line. The Pilot Line will cover the full manufacturing flow required for Polar Light’s first MicroLED product, accelerating validation, scaling and product readiness.

“The signing of this pilot line agreement marks an important operational milestone for Polar Light Technologies,” said Ashutosh Kumar, COO of Polar Light Technologies. “Scaling advanced semiconductor innovation from laboratory development to industrially viable manufacturing requires precise process control, reproducibility and infrastructure capable of supporting future high-volume production. This collaboration with VTT enables us to accelerate that transition and strengthen our path toward industrial commercialization.”

VTT brings extensive expertise in microelectronics, advanced semiconductor processing and pilot-scale manufacturing. The partnership is expected to significantly de-risk Polar Light’s transition toward industrialization, while preserving the performance advantages of its patented pyramidal MicroLED architecture.

“We are proud to support Polar Light Technologies’ unique MicroLEDs and to bring a first product to the market via our Pilot Line,” said Tauno Vähä-Heikkilä, director, Strategic Partnerships at VTT. “This cooperation demonstrates how strong Nordic collaboration can accelerate the commercialization of cutting-edge semiconductor technologies.”

The Pilot Line collaboration supports Polar Light’s strategy to scale manufacturing, qualify processes and engage initial customers as the company commercializes its MicroLED-based products.
