Image display apparatus and manufacturing method thereof

An image display apparatus comprising:

• a display unit including a substrate having an outer surface and an image display area;
• a conductive layer disposed on the substrate via an adhesive layer;
• a conductive tape disposed on the outer surface of the substrate;
• and
• a member for holding the conductive layer against the substrate, wherein
• part of the adhesive layer is layered between the conductive tape and at least a part of the conductive layer,
• the conductive tape includes a projection portion contacting a side of the conductive layer such that the conductive layer and the conductive tape are electrically connected,
• the member sandwiches the display unit, the conductive layer, and the conductive tape having the projection, and the member includes an elastic member disposed above the conductive tape, and
• the conductive tape is a ground potential.
