In order to take maximum advantage of opportunities

Recently, China government promoted LED solid state lighting and listed Beijing as a level-one city for demonstration. Meanwhile, BOE's 8G plant scheduled to start mass production in 2011, LED backlight unit (BLU) demand from BOE was expected to surge. Additionally, Everlight was listed as one of BOE's backlighting suppliers. In order to take maximum advantage of opportunities, Everlight decided to set up a production plant in Beijing. Market sources noted, Currently all LED Linear high bay light notebook products were LED backlit. BOE's overall LED demand from its 5G and 6G plants was expected to exceed one billion chips in 2011, and to over seven billion chips when BOE's advanced production lines came online in the future.
