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.
As part of the Diversity in Graphene initiative, we organised a Wikipedia Edit-a-thon, a free event where participants learned from an experienced Wikipedia editor and edited Wikipedia entries together.
This event marked the public launch of the 2D-Experimental Pilot Line (2D-EPL), gaving the participants insights on this new Graphene Flagship project and how it can spearhead the introduction of graphene and related materials in semiconductors.
Graphene from the Buyer's Perspective – The Power of Standardisation, which was held virtually on Tuesday, 19 January 2021, was 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.
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.
Innovation Workshop Electronics is an industry workshop for participants who want to discuss opportunities with graphene in the area of electronics and meet future partners to create new exciting innovation projects. This event was co-organised by the Graphene Flagship, RISE (Research Institutes of Sweden) and SIO Grafen.
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 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.
The Korea-EU Workshop 2019 was held in Yonsei University, in Seoul, Korea. The workshop's aim was to be a forum for the exchange of experiences, practices, and ideas related to the current and emerging topics associated with the basic chemistry approach, materials synthesis, application development and commercialization for graphene and related 2D materials.
The EU-China Workshop was held on 16-18 October 2019, at Shanghai Institute of Microsystem Information Technology (SIMIT), Shanghai, China. The workshop's goal was to be a forum for the exchange of experiences, practices and ideas related to the current and emerging topics associated with the fundamental materials synthesis, physics and devices for graphene and related 2D materials.
This US-EU Workshop was held on 9-10 May 2019 at Penn State University, jointly with the 7th Annual "Graphene and Beyond: From Atoms to Applications" Workshop. Co-organized by the National Science Foundation (NSF) and the European Graphene Flagship project, this workshop aimed at enhancing synergy within the community and build toward a strong future in 2D crystal science and technology, perpetuating the strong tradition of collaboration between the European Union and the US.
Graphene Connect 5G/Datacom took place on the second day of the Graphene Innovation Forum at the Graphene Flagship's annual conference Graphene Week on 23-27 September 2019 in Helsinki, Finland. This event was an industry workshop for participants wanting to discuss opportunities with graphene in the area of 5G and Datacom technologies and meet future partners to create new innovation projects.
