Research, Innovation, Collaboration
Funded by the European Commission, the Graphene Flagship aims to secure a major role for Europe in the ongoing technological revolution, helping to bring graphene innovation out of the lab and into commercial applications. With €1 billion budget, the Graphene Flagship's Core 3 project gathers nearly 170 academic and industrial partners from 22 countries, all exploring different aspects of graphene and related materials. With an additional €20 million investment, the European Commission has now funded the creation of an experimental pilot line for graphene-based electronics, optoelectronics and sensors. Bringing diverse competencies together, the Graphene Flagship facilitates cooperation between its partners, accelerating the timeline for industry acceptance of graphene technologies.

Innovation Webinar: November
Ultra-broadband absorption properties of graphene have enabled a wide number of possibilities in the fields of lasers and photonics. Here we'll present a patented turn-key, dual-wavelength synchronised fibre laser solution exploiting graphene as a broadband saturable absorber to be implemented in a coherent Raman microscopy platform for live cell-imaging and tissue analysis. Such technology is being developed by Cambridge Raman Imaging (CRI) Ltd., a spin-out of the University of Cambridge and Politecnico di Milano, with the mission to bring to market innovative chemometric imaging platforms for the study of living cells and the identification of tumours and other diseases in the clinical practice. CRI's instruments will provide clinicians with a unique tool to objectively analyse tumours and effectively tailor treatments, with the ultimate goal of making personalised medicine widely accessible to all patients.
