The Graphene Flagship organises a variety of events for researchers, industry and early career researchers in order to inspire you to engage in better research, innovation and collaboration. The project is also represented at external tradeshows and exhibitions.
The Diversity in Graphene initiative aims to create a collaborative research environment where everybody feels welcome, without any prejudice. The initiative holds two annual meetings, a career day and a meeting at the Graphene Week conference.
Graphene from the Buyer's Perspective – The Power of Standardisation, to be held virtually on Tuesday, 19 January 2021, will be the first in a series of events highlighting "The Power of Standardization," hosted by the Graphene Flagship. Together, we are aiming at connecting the global efforts towards graphene standardisation.
The 2D-Experimental Pilot Line (2D-EPL) is a first-of-its-kind manufacturing facility for graphene and 2D materials. Together, key European companies and research centres will produce electronics, optoelectronics and sensors based on these innovative materials on a pilot scale. Funded by the European Commission, this Graphene Flagship initiative aims to secure a major role for Europe in the ongoing technological revolution by propelling 2D materials into commercial applications. This event marks the public launch of the 2D-EPL and will give participants insights on this new Graphene Flagship project and how it can spearhead the introduction of graphene and related materials in semiconductors.
As part of the Diversity in Graphene initiative, we are organising a Wikipedia Edit-a-thon, a free event where you can learn from experienced Wikipedia editors and edit Wikipedia entries together.
The perfect opportunity to hear about different career pathways. More info coming soon!
Graphene Week is Europe´s Leading Graphene Conference, bringing together the latest innovations and leading-edge technology and research on graphene from more than 200 experts related to industry and academia meeting to explore the hottest topics influencing the field (industry). The 15th edition of Graphene Week will be held in Strasbourg, France, 20-24 September 2021.
Graphene For Healthcare will provide insights on the medical technology patent landscape, future opportunities and commercialisation challenges to the application of graphene and related materials. This virtual event took place on 26 November 2026.
Diversity in Graphene expands upon the remit of Women in Graphene to strive for the inclusion of all minority and marginalised groups.
Graphene For Research, Innovation, Collaboration highlighted aspects from the entire breadth and depth of the Graphene Flagship. Day one focused on cutting-edge graphene research. Day two highlighted our industrialisation efforts and commercialisation successes. Day three focused on our societal impact with sessions on our international collaborations, sustainability and diversity.
The Women in Graphene Career Development Day 2020 was held virtually on 18-19 March! This two-day event was an opportunity to discuss issues related to gender and diversity in science and technology fields and specifically in the graphene community.
The 4th Graphene Flagship EU-Japan Workshop on Graphene and related 2D materials was held on 18-20 November 2019, at Palazzo della Carovana, in Pisa, Italy. The goal of this workshop was the exchange of experiences, practices and ideas related to the current and emerging topics associated with graphene and related 2D materials in the field of electronics, spintronics, plasmonics, valleytronics, optoelectronics and photonics. A special focus has been given to fundamental materials synthesis, physics and devices.
The Graphene Flagship, the Medical Association of Barcelona (COMB) and the Catalan Institute of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology (ICN2) co-organized a Graphene Connect event on MedTech and Diagnostic Technologies associated with the first Graphene for Health Investment Forum. The event will took place on 6 November 2019 from 9:00 to 17:30 and was hosted at the premises of the Barcelona Medical Association in Barcelona, Spain.
In 2019 Tetra Pak, the world’s leading food processing and packaging solutions company and associate member of the Graphene Flagship, hosted a Marketplace event, showcasing cutting-edge research and development ongoing throughout the Flagship.
