WESTBOROUGH, MA — A Westborough-based technology manufacturer recently announced plans to expand its Massachusetts operations.
Kopin Corporation plans to establish a new headquarters and invest more than $80 million in infrastructure and equipment, the company announced Monday. The manufacturer develops microdisplays and optical systems for defense, industrial, medical and consumer applications.
The Westborough project could create up to 80 jobs over five years and will expand domestic manufacturing of MicroLED displays and optical technology, according to the company.
Kopin, which currently operates at 125 North Dr, said the additional capacity would support MicroLED displays for next-generation defense systems and optical connections designed to move data in AI infrastructure while using less energy.
The announcement comes after the expansion was approved for $1.46 million in state Economic Development Incentive Program tax credits, and was included on a list of EDIP Incentives awarded in 2026.
The company also recently received an $800,000 Massachusetts Manufacturing Innovation Initiative grant to install equipment for laser ablation, color-filter coating, color conversion and chip bonding at its Westborough operation.
