In December 2009, E Ink merged with Taiwan based Prime View International (PVI), E Ink’s development partner since 2005 and its largest customer. This merger enables the new company to leverage an extensive IP portfolio, experienced employee base, advanced technology, and production expertise to rapidly expand its EPD business and to develop new markets.

Established in 1992, PVI is Taiwan’s pioneer TFT-LCD Company.

In 2008 PVI acquired a 74% stake in Korea-based Hydis Technologies and quadrupled its TFT capacity to meet the strong growth of its EPD business. It has also assimilated Hydis’ prestigious AFFS wide view LCD technologies into its product and technology portfolio.
