From lab to market: A look at graphene's societal impact
For ten years, Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden, has coordinated the EU's largest research project ever – the Graphene Flagship with a budget of 1 billion euros. Now it is time to highlight the journey of graphene, a single layer of carbon, from the lab to society. In addition to a large number of new products, patents and companies, the research project is estimated to produce over 38,000 jobs in Europe by 2030. During the Graphene Week conference, 4–8 September, the media are invited to take part in the results, see graphene-based products and meet researchers and
