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
Graphene Flagship accepts first oversees Associate Member
The Korea Carbon Nano Industry Association (KCANIA) celebrated its acceptance as the Graphene Flagship's first oversees Associate Member at the Global Graphene Commercialization Summit 2026 hosted by South Korea's Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy at the Korea Science and Technology Centre in Seoul.
Spotlight: Sina Dörr
Sina Dörr, a PhD student at the University of Kassel, won the Impact Leader Award at Graphene Week 2025 in Vicenza, Italy. She now shares with us her thoughts on 2D materials and explains her research using transition metal dichalcogenides to improve raindrop triboelectric nanogenerators.

Events
Graphene Week 2026
Graphene Flagship International collaborations | 1st EU-Brazil international workshop
This year the Graphene Flagship will host the 1st EU-Brazil workshop, marking the beginning of an exchange with Brazilian researchers and experts in 2DM. The workshop will take place on 22 September 2026 during Graphene Week 2026.
Hands-on PDK training on IC design and simulation of 2D materials-based photonic devices
Join us from 2–4 November 2026 for a three-day hands-on training on design practices for 2D material-based photonic integrated circuits (PICs) on KLayout. This course will guide participants from fundamental concepts and design tools to more advanced implementations and exercises for photonic device architectures using our 2D-PL partners’ four diverse PDKs. The event will be held at imec in Leuven, Belgium, and carried out by expert designers involved in the EU-funded project 2D-PL, a part of the Graphene Flagship initiative, and co-hosted by EUROPRACTICE.
