Founded to lead. Built to scale.
about

Haylo Labs brings together technical expertise, manufacturing scale, and strategic investment to unlock microLED’s full potential.

When Haylo Ventures launched in 2023, our mission was clear: to build, scale, and commercialise world-class deeptech companies driving transformational innovation. Early engagement with the microLED sector revealed a uniquely promising yet complex landscape. Exceptional innovators were making important advances, but progress remained fragmented, limiting how quickly this revolutionary technology could reach commercial scale.

To address this, we founded Haylo Labs,  an associated company dedicated to catalysing and accelerating the entire microLED ecosystem. Haylo Labs brings together technical expertise, manufacturing scale, and strategic investment to overcome critical bottlenecks and unlock microLED’s full potential.
Why MicroLED? Why Now?
We are at a pivotal moment in technology history. As wearable computing, augmented and virtual reality (AR/VR), and artificial intelligence become ever more embedded in daily life, demand for advanced, ultra-efficient display and optical computing solutions is soaring.

MicroLED displays represent a quantum leap in visual technology:

Pixel-level light emission delivers displays that are brighter, sharper, and smaller.

Exceptional energy efficiency dramatically extends battery life, critical for wearables and mobile devices.

Ultra-compact form factors enable comfortable all-day use in AR/VR headsets and smart glasses.
Our Strategy
At Haylo Labs, we invest in and partner with companies that share our vision of accelerating and transforming the microLED and optical computing sectors. We focus on identifying innovators solving key technical challenges with scalable commercial potential.
Integration across the value chain is central to our approach. We connect advances in epitaxy, wafer processing, mass transfer, colour conversion, and system integration, creating a cohesive ecosystem where breakthroughs in one area accelerate progress across the sector.

Our ambition is to establish Haylo Labs as a leader in a global centre of excellence for microLED and optical computing. By building manufacturing capabilities, fostering intellectual property, and developing skilled talent, within the UK we are laying the foundations for sustained innovation and global impact.
Markets & Applications

We are focused on addressing several high-growth, transformative markets:

Augmented reality (AR) & virtual reality (VR)
High-brightness, ultra-compact displays powering the next generation of immersive headsets and smart glasses.
Automotive displays
Energy-efficient, sunlight-readable displays designed for connected and autonomous vehicles.
A Vision for the Future
The global microLED market is forecast to grow from approximately £2.7 billion in 2024 to over £590 billion by 2034, driven by demand in AR/VR, automotive, consumer electronics, and AI-driven computing. This presents a generational opportunity for the UK and global partners to lead in a technology poised to transform multiple industries.

At Haylo Labs, we are more than investors: we are builders of infrastructure, cultivators of talent, and creators of an ecosystem designed to ensure leadership in the microLED revolution. Our vision is clear, to shape the future of immersive computing and next-generation technologies with lasting real-world impact.
