Something for Everyone

Industry


Graphene Week 2024 is a great venue for discussing the commercialisation of graphene, industrial applications and challenges in upscaling processes. Several dedicated sessions will focus specifically on these and other topics related to innovation and industrialisation.

Highlights for industry

Academia


Graphene Week 2024 will feature over 25 keynote and invited speakers in plenary, around 100 oral contributions in parallel sessions, and approximately 300 poster presentations.

By attending Graphene Week 2024, you will have the rare opportunity to connect with relevant peers on a large and meaningful scale. New perspectives, new collaborations, and new technologies – they all begin here.

Highlights for researchers

Students


The Graphene Flagship is committed to developing the next generation of graphene and 2D materials experts. At Graphene Week 2024, students will not only be invited to share their work in our poster sessions, but we will also offer one-on-one career coaching, a diversity session on wellness in the lab and workplace and a chance to chat with successful entrepreneurs who created start-up companies in the Graphene Flagship ecosystem.

Highlights for students

Collaborations

Innovation Forum


The Innovation Forum focuses on innovation and commercialisation of applications containing 2D materials. Here is an opportunity to hear about successful implementations and challenges from both start-ups and larger corporations. 

Innovation programme

Workshops and Sessions


This special edition of Graphene Week will be enhanced by the unique contributions of our 12 Research and Innovation Actions (RIAs) and Innovation Actions (IAs). Each project focuses on specific areas of 2D materials, and their collaboration will be central to our events. Together, we will create engaging parallel sessions and workshops that focus on their specialised fields, providing attendees with valuable insights and the latest updates on these topics.

Welcome Reception


Klub Lávka - a unique space in the heart of Prague - will host our Welcome Reception and should offer a night full of fun and networking opportunities! 

Originally a mill (where the famous Czech composer Josef Mysliveček, was allegedly born) was reconstructed into a concert hall completed in 1990 with the second part (the club itself) following in 1992.

Conference Dinner


Enjoy the city lights along the Vtlava river on a three hour dinner cruise on the Grand Bohemia. Boarding will take place from Pier 4. Purchase tickets with your registration.
