Blue 2004: Advanced LEDs & Lasers
The International Industry Review for Advanced LED
& Semiconductor Laser Technologies

 
Ambassador Hotel - Hsinchu
Hsinchu, Taiwan   May 10-12, 2004

 
In 1995-2000, Taiwan grew from 0 to 80% of the world’s InGaAlP
HB-LED production*.
In 2003, Taiwan, China & Korea grew 700% in GaN volume
and now supply 40% of worldwide market share*.
Asia produces almost all the lasers for CD & DVD players/recorders.
Blue-laser DVD formats are happening now!
* Market data from Strategies Unlimited

As we learned at Blue 2003, things are changing, and not so quietly anymore. Emerging from laboratory curiosity, the blue spectrum technologies have become a completed "industry". As the follow-on to the successful Blue 2003, we're adding to the blue spectrum big picture with updates and information on some of the up and coming advanced LED technologies that are going to change the industry. Talk to anyone who attended last year, and you'll understand why you need to be there!

What's Blue...?
A compound semiconductor technology that enables the creation of remarkable, solid state blue spectrum light, is what's behind a myriad of hot applications that are dramatically changing the world of lighting and information storage. The technology strides that made these applications possible are the result of years of contributions by device developers, their suppliers, and systems integrators from all over the world. You'll hear more about the market directions, and latest developments for this exciting industry. If you're part of the Blue Spectrum or advanced LED marketplace, then you need to be there.

Keynote Speaker (just announced):
Charles M. (Chuck) Swoboda, President & CEO, Cree Inc.

Conference Co-Chairs:

Dr. Yung-Sheng Liu -- VP and General Director
  Opto-Electronics & Systems Laboratories (OES)
Taiwan Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI)
Dr. Robert Walker -- Principal, YEBY Associates

At Blue 2004: Advanced LEDs & Lasers you'll hear the stories behind the stories, direct from the market drivers, and learn where the hottest applications are headed. Whether you're an advanced LED or laser system integrator, device manufacturer, or supplying to them, this event is for you!

If you're into advanced LEDs or lasers, this one's for you!  Find out more!

Blue 2004: Advanced LEDs & Lasers will be well attended by financial and market analysts, financial catalysts, and senior managers of the companies around the globe that are actually driving blue spectrum development... across the entire supply chain.
