Graphene Flagship Events

The 9th EU-Korea Workshop on Graphene and 2D Materials will be held on 26 May 2026 in Strasbourg (France). This bilateral workshop follows up on the long-established collaboration between the Graphene Flagship and the Korean Graphene Society. Hosted by 2D PRINTABLE, the main aim of the meeting will be the discussion and exchange of ideas and best practices on current and emerging topics associated with the 2D materials synthesis and production, multi-scale studies of their physical and chemical properties, as well as application development and commercialisation for graphene and related 2D materials in (opto)electronics, energy and composites.

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.

Supported by the European Commission, Graphene Week stands at the forefront of cutting-edge research, innovation, and technology. As Europe's leading and longest-running graphene conference, it unites over 500 international experts and students to discuss key topics concerning graphene and 2D materials. The 20th edition of Graphene Week will be held in Vicenza, Italy, 22-26 September 2025!

The Innovative Advanced Materials Initiative invites you to IAM-I Day, to be held 19 November from 14:00- 18:30 in Brussels at BluePoint (Address: Blvd Auguste Reyers 80, 1030 Brussels, Belgium). This session aims to share the status and next steps of the partnership association. For that, we will count on the participation of the European Commission, among other stakeholders. For the first time, the IAM-I community will have the opportunity to meet and mingle in person! Please note that seats are limited and will be assigned on a first-come, first-served basis, so we encourage you to register as soon as possible.

Supported by the European Commission, Graphene Week stands at the forefront of cutting-edge research, innovation, and technology. As Europe's leading and longest-running graphene conference, it unites over 500 international experts and students to discuss key topics concerning graphene and 2D materials. In 2024, the program welcomed over 200 speakers, and included an Innovation Forum, Exhibition, and dedicated sessions on diversity, early career development, future opportunities of the EC, and 2D materials for the future. The 19th edition of Graphene Week was held in Prague, Czech Republic. Stay tuned for our next edition!

This workshop will focus on the Strategic Research & Innovation Agenda (SRIA) for Innovative Advanced Materials set by the IAM4EU partnership. During the event, we will present the content SRIA, engage in discussions, and collaboratively refine this document based on the outcomes of these discussions. Your expertise and insights will be invaluable in shaping the future of advanced materials research in Europe!

2D materials have triggered enormous interest over the past 15 years, thanks to their interesting electronic and optical properties, which have propelled them as viable candidates for replacing/complementing the good-old Silicon in future semiconductor technology nodes. Nevertheless, several tough challenges need to be addressed to take the opportunities ahead. In this workshop, we will give an account of a few relevant R&D areas, outlining key attention points in material growth, integration, and reliability, and we will sample applications domain opportunities, underlining the unique advantages of the 2D materials, which recommend them as prime contenders for continuing the physical/functional scaling, as well as for expanding into the applications space, for the years/decades to come.

ARMS, GRAPHERGIA, SOLiD and SUPERIOT will hold the joint workshop "Synergizing Sustainability: Integrating Advanced Energy Storage with Harvesting for Wearable Electronics" on June 30 from 14:00 to 17:00. This workshop will delve into the forefront of energy-autonomous self-powered wearable electronic devices, focusing on the dynamic interaction between energy harvesting systems and transformative energy storage solutions, specifically batteries and supercapacitors.

If you are attending Graphene 2024, don't miss Graphene Flagship project GIANCE's workshop on June 26. Discover insights on sustainable graphene, printed technologies, graphene-based membranes, and more. Also, Kari Hjelt from Chalmers Industriteknik will be talking about the 10 years of Graphene Flagship and the way ahead, offering unique insights you won’t want to miss!

Materials Week 2024 aims to bring together – for the first time – the numerous small and large Research and Innovation (R&I) communities that are driving advances in materials innovation manifested across diverse value chains and industrial markets. The Graphene Flagship is responsible for the session on Sustainability & Circularity driven by Advanced Materials. You can also find us in the following training courses: "How to expand the use of your test method? – Validation is key towards standardisation" and "Standardisation needs for regulatory testing of graphene and related 2D materials".

This free, lunch-to-lunch event will celebrate the 2D Experimental Pilot Line (2D-EPL) results and its progress towards creating an ecosystem for 2D materials integration in semiconductors for electronics, photonics, sensors and biomedical devices. The symposium will focus on photonics and biomedical applications and the benefits and challenges of industrial uptake for these technologies.

This workshop, hosted by the Graphene Flagship's 2D-EPL and its partner AMO, will examine electronics based on transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs). This free hybrid event will take place in Aachen, Germany as part of the two-day event on 2D Materials for Future Electronics. Attendees are welcome to join in-person for the full two-day event, or online for the 2-hour digital 2D-EPL workshop.

A major challenge in using 2D-materials is linked to the impact of the environment on its properties. These effects are mitigated by careful material and process selection. The transition from lab–to–fab is enabled by setting up dedicated tools and processes. Gaining insights on the source of process variations and their impact on the variability of device parameters is key to making the right choices in the set-up of pilot-line processes.

Graphene Week 2023 - FROM WONDER TO ACTION - marks not only the Graphene Flagship’s 10-year anniversary celebration, but also the 400th birthday of Graphene Week 2023’s host city, Gothenburg – and celebrations of these two milestones coincided in Gothenburg, 4-8 September 2023. Join us this year for Graphene Week 2024 in Prague, 14-18 October 2024
