What is the Graphene Flagship?
Bringing together 118 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
GRAPHERGIA Hub: A meeting place for graphene enabled solutions
The GRAPHERGIA project has launched an initiative: GRAPHERGIA Hub, that connects stakeholders across European, national, and local landscapes. Whether you’re a researcher, entrepreneur, or industry leader, the GRAPHERGIA consortium runs a dynamic space for collaboration, knowledge exchange, and strategic partnerships for individuals or teams passionate about driving innovation in graphene-enabled energy solutions, novel smart textiles or advancing future battery technologies.
IAM-I is ready to sail
Friday, 31 January the inaugural General Assembly and start of the Innovative Advanced Materials Initiative (IAM-I) took place in Brussels and online with over 250 participants. The 2D community was very well represented.
OECD Workshop on Graphene Family Materials
At the end of November 2024, a two-day expert workshop on Graphene Family Materials (GFM) was held by the OECD in Paris.
GIANCE leading the way in eco-friendly innovation
The GIANCE project is set to revolutionise material solutions across multiple industries by introducing a new generation of sustainable graphene-based materials (GRM-bM) that combine enhanced performance with a significant reduction in environmental impact. By focusing on circular design, lightweight construction, and multifunctionality, GIANCE aims to reduce energy consumption, cut CO2 emissions per vehicle over its lifetime, and promote material recyclability.
2D-PL funded to further mature 2D material wafer-scale integration
Launched in October 2024, the Graphene Flagship’s 2D-Pilot Line (2D-PL) project aims to further strengthen the European ecosystem in the development of integration modules for photonics and electronics prototyping services.
Graphene: a Nobel story
Since 2013, the Graphene Flagship has brought together academic and industrial researchers to push graphene and layered materials to the forefront of European scientific research. But when –and how– did everything begin? Discover the history of graphene. (Picture: Adam Baker, Flickr).

Graphene Week 2025
E-MRS Spring Meeting 2025
The ability to solution-process and print nanomaterials has enabled huge advances in their characterisation and application in energy generation and storage, optoelectronics and composites. While the recent focus has been on 2D materials, there remains considerable interest in the solution-processing of 1D nanotubes and nanowires as well as 0D nanoparticles.
