The flexible electronics market is expected to grow from USD 23.92 billion in 2018 to reach USD 40.37 billion by 2023, at a CAGR of 11.0% between 2018 and 2023. Flexible electronic devices are easy to assemble being light in weight and portable.

This has resulted in the growing adoption of flexible electronic devices for solar power harnessing, healthcare, and consumer electronics application, which collectively drive market growth. The widespread use of rigid electronic devices is hindering the growth of the flexible electronics market to a large extent. Samsung Group (South Korea), LG Group (South Korea), and Solar Frontier (Japan) are some of the prominent players in the flexible electronics market

OLED lighting and flexible batteries are expected to demonstrate rapid growth in the flexible electronics market during the forecast period
Flexible OLED lighting solutions are expected to be increasingly adopted for automotive applications as they are easy to integrate, provide improved luminosity, and offer optimization in saving space and cost.

The growing interest in flexible OLED lighting from major automobile manufacturers is also expected to boost this high rate of adoption. Flexible batteries are also expected to be rapidly adopted for consumer, healthcare, and industrial applications. Improvements such as rechargeability will aid longer operational times in various applications

The consumer electronics vertical to hold the largest share of the market during the forecast period
Flexible displays, printed sensors, and flexible batteries are being widely used in consumer devices.

Flexible displays account for a major share of the flexible electronics market for consumer electronics. Flexible displays are prominently being adopted for smartphone, smart wearable, and television applications. Leading smartphone brands such as Apple and Samsung are playing a vital role in the growth of the flexible electronics market for flexible displays

APAC is expected to dominate the flexible electronics market during the forecast period
APAC dominated the flexible electronics market accounting for the largest market share in 2017.
