On its 10th anniversary, Morphotonics has announced the launch of its Series B financing round, marking a major step forward in its mission to revolutionize global display technology. The round is co-led by new investors 3M and BOM (Brabant Development Agency), alongside existing investor Innovation Industries. The first closing of the $10+ million round has been completed, with a second closing anticipated by the end of the year.
This new funding will fuel Morphotonics’ vision of advancing 3D display technology, making augmented reality (AR) smart glasses more accessible, and offering energy-efficient solutions for mobile devices. As digital interactions become increasingly central to daily life, demand for superior visual experiences continues to rise. Morphotonics is committed to delivering display technologies that enhance visual quality while optimizing energy efficiency. As a global leader in large-area nanoimprint technology, Morphotonics is transforming the field with its innovative Roll-to-Plate (R2P) nanoimprint technology and equipment, capable of adding trillions of lenses over an area larger than one square meter.
“We are on the verge of significant growth in applications such as glasses-free 3D displays and Smart AR Glasses,” said Jan Matthijs ter Meulen, Co-Founder & CEO of Morphotonics. “This new funding will strengthen our market leadership and expand our impact in the consumer electronics and display industries.”
Mark Copman, Senior Vice President of 3M New Growth Ventures, added, “3M is thrilled to invest in Morphotonics and explore potential collaboration. Our investment reflects 3M’s commitment to fostering innovative technologies that will drive advancements in consumer electronics.”
The funding will help Morphotonics scale its operations, expand its global supply chain, particularly in Asia, and push forward large-area nanoimprinting as a new standard in display optics production through product innovations.
Ivana Sersic, Investment Manager at BOM, remarked, “We are proud to co-lead this round alongside the existing investor. Morphotonics is at the forefront of nanoimprint lithography, and this investment represents a key milestone in advancing the next generation of displays.”
Sr. Investment Manager Jurgen van Eck at BOM also highlighted the investment’s alignment with the region’s strength in machine building and manufacturing, emphasizing its contribution to North Brabant and the Netherlands’ core competencies.
Morphotonics’ proprietary technology enables the production of high-performance mobile screens, intuitive 3D displays, outdoor-readable smartphones, and immersive Smart AR Glasses. Combining high precision with large-scale production, the company aims to make these cutting-edge technologies commercially viable.
With its Series B investment, growing market demand, seasoned leadership, and proven technology, Morphotonics is well-positioned to expand its early success and better meet the needs of innovators in display technology.
