Graphene Flagship Events

Upcoming Events

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. 

Which events are right for you?

For Researchers


Our events for researchers include our annual conference Graphene Week, our workshops for early career researchers Graphene Study, our International Workshops which encourage collaborations with researchers in many other parts of the world, and our digital events.

For Industry


The Graphene Flagship organises several events for industry including the Graphene Marketplace events hosted by Graphene Flagship partners who wish to promote graphene applications in their companies and Innovation Workshops created to foster innovation projects between academia and industry.

In addition to our own industry events, the Graphene Flagship showcases graphene applications at industry tradeshows and exhibitions.

For Students


The Graphene Flagship promotes the education of early career researchers with its Graphene Study events.

For Diversity

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.

Past Events

purple and gold wafers
11-12 June 2024

Pioneering 2D Materials for Semiconductor Industry


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.

Standardisation Workshop


Advanced materials, such as nanomaterials, 2D materials, or thin films, play a crucial role in driving economic development and addressing major challenges in the coming years. These challenges include mitigating the impact of climate change, advancing lightweight engineering, enhancing catalysis, and improving medical applications. To comprehend the performance of these materials and ensure their acceptance across various sectors as safe and sustainable for both humans and the environment, the availability of reference procedures, materials, and data is essential. One versatile tool for establishing such references and evaluating the proficiency of individual laboratories and their competencies is through (international) interlaboratory comparisons (ILC). Notably, initiatives like the Versailles Project on Advanced Materials and Standards (VAMAS) provide a platform for conducting ILCs. This webinar will showcase various examples of interlaboratory comparisons, illustrating their impact on the development of reference products.

Pioneering 2D Materials for Semiconductor Industry: Electronics based on TMDCs


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.

2D-EPL Workshop @ Graphene Week 2023


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.

UAE International Workshop @ Graphene Week 2023


In this workshop, organised as part of the Graphene Week 2023 programme, attendees had the chance to learn about the ongoing research activities and real-world technology transfer applications in the United Arab Emirates, including spin-offs from the Graphene Flagship. The Research & Innovation Center for Graphene and 2D Materials, at Khalifa University, is very focused on the commercialization of research and addresses challenges from the region with innovations in construction, health care, aerospace, energy and water purification. Apart from presentations, this session provided opportunities to discuss topics of common interest, explore possible new collaborations, and a Q&A session.

Graphene Week Innovation Forum
5-6 September 2023

Graphene Innovation Forum @ Graphene Week 2023


Graphene Week 2023 inspired a fusion of graphene research and technology with industrial innovation – it is where science meets business! The Graphene Innovation Forum is a good spot to learn about the latest graphene innovations, spin-off company successes, and the future of the graphene industry.
