Based in the United Kingdom, PragmatIC Semiconductor develops flexible integrated circuits (FlexICs) beyond the scope of conventional electronics. Their ConnectIC family of radio frequency identification and near-field communications (RFID/NFC) integrated chips can be embedded into packaging to store and relay information to devices such as smartphones. This technology enables smart packaging applications across the entire product lifecycle – from manufacturing and supply chain management to consumer engagement and even material recovery.
