Presentation: Pivoting for Success – Driving future applications through continued innovation

In 2010, following a recent management buy-out, Plessey was still very much a silicon foundry supplier. 10 years later, Plessey entered into partnership with one of the world’s biggest tech giants, developing uLED on cutting-edge III-V technology.
