Innovation Forum @ Graphene Week 2024


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. The presentations during the Innovation Forum are short and sharp, which gives more time for interaction through discussions and questions. Interactive panel discussions with industrial representatives will probe into future application. The Graphene Flagship’s work in both standardisation and roadmapping will be presented. There will also be opportunities to network and discuss ideas and future collaborations with the presenters as well as fellow attendees.

11:15 11:15 - 13:15

Opening Session

The Graphene Flagship is working towards industrialisation of 2D materials on all levels. Kari Hjelt will give an overview of the latest market trends and provide examples of commercialisation success stories.

  

Roadmapping exercises demonstrate various paths that 2D materials can take to transition from the lab to use in industrial applications. The roadmap aggregates a common view and offers strategic guidance for both the Graphene Flagship and industry. Henning Döscher will present the latest updates.

 

Standardisation plays an important role in building trust for integration of 2D materials in commercial applications, promoting manufacturing reproducibility and making sure we use a well-defined terminology. Jörg Radnik will present the ongoing standardisation work within the Graphene Flagship.

 

REACH is a regulation of the European Union, adopted to improve the protection of human health and the environment. The registration of 2D materials within REACH is an important step towards successful commersialisation. In this session you will hear about the latest developments and future work towards dossiers for graphene. Round table: Thomas Reiss, Jörg Radnik and Stephen Hodge

Commercilisation

Suppliers Forum

For successful commercialisation of applications containing 2D materials, the whole value chain, from producers to end users, needs to be in place. In this session we will hear from a variety of suppliers of 2D materials. What are their challenges and success stories? The audience is encouraged to ask questions and take part in the discussions.

2D-PL

2D Pilot Line

The 2D Pilot Line (2D-PL) project aims to further strengthen the European ecosystem in the development of integration modules for photonics and electronics prototyping services. It will work to mature semiconductor technologies and provide information to aid industrial uptake. This session will highlight the work done to mature these technologies over the past four years and the work planned for the next phase of the project.

Industry Perspective

This session offers an opportunity to hear from industry representatives about challenges and opportunities in commercialisation of 2D materials. What are the material bottlenecks? What does success look like? What has been learnt through failure? The audience is encouraged to ask questions and take part in the discussions.

Czech Innovation Landscape Around 2D Materials

Workshop organised by AMIRES

Commercialisation of applications containing 2D materials continues to face various challenges. This session will showcase several success-stories from the Czech landscape, featuring several companies and innovators representing the whole value chain, from producers to end users. Their successes, challenges and local support mechanisms will be discussed.

A Retrospective Analysis and the Future of 2D Materials in Desalination & Water Treatment

Co-hosted by the Research & Innovation Center for Graphene and 2D Materials and the Graphene Flagship, we present the 3rd International EU-UAE Workshop.

As the world grapples with water scarcity, innovative technologies are imperative. Graphene and related 2D materials present a promising avenue for revolutionizing desalination and water purification processes, particularly given their inherent resistance to fouling and microbial growth. However, the path to integrating 2D materials into the water desalination and water treatment industries is one that faces resistance to change and challenges. In this session, moderated by Fraunhofer ISI, we take a retrospective analysis of the Graphene Technology and Innovation Roadmap’s actualisation in this field, while looking at future opportunities and challenges through case studies, latest scientific applications, and a robust round table discussion.
