The US flexible electronics market is estimated to grow modestly at a CAGR of around 13.4% during the forecast period. The US is the leading market for electronic products due to the already established smartphone industry and widespread application of electronic components in entertainment devices, automotive and healthcare equipment. The strength of the US includes industrial competency in the development of equipment, advanced materials, and chemistry, microelectronics, nanotechnology, and printing. In addition, the country has a superior system of research universities as well as the best infrastructure across the globe and entrepreneurial culture to foster innovative start-ups. Moreover, the country has the government with extensive experience working with the industry for fostering innovation. The development of capabilities in flexible electronics is promoted by the US federal government through partnerships with the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and funding from the National Science Foundation (NSF), The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), and Department of Energy (DOE).

The researchers in the US are working well on flexible electronics technology. For instance, the research team at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in October 2018, had found a way of growing single crystalline compound semiconductor on its substrate through two-dimensional materials that can benefit industries such as wearables, photonics, IoT and solar energy. With this innovation, the mass-production of ultra-thin gallium arsenide and gallium nitride chips can be achieved inexpensively. In addition, monolayer materials can be harvested for manufacturing 2D electronics such as tiny photonics devices.

The companies which are contributing to the growth of the US flexible electronics market include 3M Co., BASF SE, Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd., LG Electronics, Inc., and Fujikura Ltd. The market players are considerably contributing to the market growth by the adoption of various strategies including new product launch, merger, and acquisition, collaborations with government, funding to the start-ups and technological advancements to stay competitive in the market. For instance, Blue Spark Technologies, Inc. has developed a TempTraq, a Bluetooth wearable temperature monitor that received CE mark approval in November 2018. It serves as a continuous temperature monitoring solution in the form of a comfortable, soft, disposable patch, that will now be available to the consumers and hospitals in the European region.
