Japan Display Inc. (株式会社ジャパンディスプレイ, Kabushiki-gaisha Japan Disupurei), commonly called by its abbreviated name, JDI, is the Japanese display technology joint venture formed by the merger of the small and medium-sized liquid crystal display businesses of Sony, Toshiba, and Hitachi.

As of March 2014, JDI was one of the major display suppliers to Apple's iPhone.[4] Also, it was a key supplier to Nintendo Switch, along with Sharp Corporation, until 2017.[5]

As of 2020, JDI has research and production of three types of displays ongoing under its operation: LCD, OLED, and microLED.[6][7][8]
