What is the Graphene Flagship?
Bringing together 126 academic and industrial partners in 13 research and innovation projects and 1 coordination and support project, the Graphene Flagship initiative will continue to advance Europe’s strategic autonomy in technologies that rely on graphene and other 2D materials. The initiative, which builds on the previous 10-years of the Graphene Flagship, is funded by the European Commission’s Horizon Europe research and innovation programme.
What's new
GIANCE project updates
The GIANCE project has worked to organise several events on life cycle assessment over the last few months in addition to a consortium meeting held in Rome.
2D-PRINTABLE project updates
The 2D-PRINTABLE project has been productive publishing three new papers and participating in two educational activities.
2D-PRINTABLE and GIANCE at the 9th EU-Korea Workshop on Graphene and 2D Materials
The 2D-PRINTABLE and GIANCE projects were featured at the 9th EU-Korea Workshop on Graphene and 2D Materials, taking place on 26 May 2025, from 09:00 to 17:45 CEST, at the Institute for Supramolecular Science and Engineering, University of Strasbourg, France.
Jack Maughan’s Work at the Edge of Graphene and Neuroscience
At the crossroads of cutting-edge materials science and advanced biomedical engineering, Jack Maughan is building tools that could reshape how we treat and interact with the brain. A postdoctoral researcher with a background in nanoscience and tissue engineering, Jack is exploring how graphene-based microneedles can enable next-generation neural interfaces devices that could one day treat neurological disorders, restore movement, and even enhance human-machine communication.
SAFARI events recap
The SAFARI project has shared its insights on its Safe and Sustainable by Design (SSbD) approach in several events this spring.

Participate in the 2D-Pilot Line's MPW runs
The 2D-PL offers multi-project wafer (MPW) runs in which customer designs are included as dies on joint wafers where you can "share the mask to share the costs”. Currently there are three MPW offerings available for CMOS devices, biosensors and photonics applications.
Annual Report 2024 now available
The latest Annual Report provides updates on the Graphene Flagship's 14 projects and a glimpse into two of our biggest events of 2024 (Graphene Week and our Exhibition at DG CONNECT).

Graphene Week 2025
2D Pilot line: hands-on design training
This two-day, in-person training is offered by the 2D Pilot Line (2D-PL) project. Expert trainers from project partners will deliver IC design skills to enable access to multi-project wafer runs for all attendees – creating the opportunity to become a 2D-PL customer and “share the mask to share the price”. The event will start with a session of introductory seminars, diving into the framework of the 2D-PL in the EU semiconductor ecosystem and showcasing the technologies offered to potential users. The trainings will involve hands-on practice on Cadence and KLayout with four Project Design Kits (PDKs) for graphene-based devices (Graphene FET – GFET, graphene-based Photonic Integrated Circuits – PICs, graphene-based Biosensors) manufactured by four 2D-PL consortium members – VTT (Finland), IHP (Germany), Graphenea (Spain), AMO (Germany).
