FLUXIM AG

Their core work

FLUXIM AG is a Swiss technology SME specializing in simulation and modelling software for organic electronic devices — OLEDs, organic photovoltaics (OPV), and perovskite solar cells. They develop tools that predict device performance, stability, and manufacturing outcomes, bridging the gap between materials science and industrial production. Their software platform enables manufacturers and researchers to optimize organic electronics without costly trial-and-error prototyping, covering everything from molecular-level physics to full device and process simulation.

What they specialise in

How they've shifted over time

In their early H2020 period (2015–2018), FLUXIM focused on simulating established organic electronics — OLED stability modelling and broad multiscale characterization of OPV, perovskites, and roll-to-roll printed devices. From 2018 onward, their work shifted toward integrated modelling frameworks with emphasis on interoperability, ontologies, and open innovation platforms (MUSICODE), alongside deeper specialization in advanced OLED emitter physics like TADF materials. The trajectory shows a company moving from device-level simulation toward becoming a platform provider for the entire organic electronics modelling ecosystem.

FLUXIM is evolving from a simulation tool provider into a platform company connecting materials modelling workflows across the organic electronics value chain.

How they like to work

FLUXIM consistently participates as a specialist partner rather than leading consortia — all five projects are in participant role. They work within medium-to-large consortia (58 unique partners across 14 countries), suggesting they are a sought-after simulation provider that different research groups bring in for their modelling capabilities. Their broad partner base with no coordination role indicates they are valued as a technical contributor rather than a project manager.

FLUXIM has collaborated with 58 unique partners across 14 countries, indicating a well-connected European network in the organic electronics research community. As a Swiss SME embedded in multiple large consortia, they serve as a cross-cutting simulation provider linking academic and industrial partners.

What sets them apart

FLUXIM occupies a rare niche: a commercial software company that provides validated simulation tools specifically for organic electronics — OLEDs, OPV, and perovskites. While many academic groups do modelling, FLUXIM offers productized software that bridges research-grade physics with manufacturing-relevant predictions. For consortium builders, they bring both the simulation tools and the expertise to integrate those tools into multi-partner modelling workflows with proper interoperability standards.

Highlights from their portfolio
