Project description
Empowering Europe’s leadership in 2D materials
Europe faces the challenge of maintaining its strategic autonomy in technologies reliant on graphene and other 2D materials. There is a need for coordinated efforts and support functions that allow separate actions to collaborate efficiently and exploit synergies. In this context, the EU-funded GrapheneEU project will provide key coordination and governance, industrialisation, dissemination and alignment, ensuring sustained European leadership in the field and capitalising on previous investments. Through Research and Innovation Actions and Innovation Actions, GrapheneEU will foster synergies and maximise efficiency in scientific and technological endeavours. By providing key support functions in governance, industrialisation and dissemination, the project encourages the exchange of best practices for collaborations with national and regional initiatives.
Objective
The Graphene Flagship (GF) initiative aims at advancing Europe’s strategic autonomy in technologies that rely on graphene and other 2D materials and sustaining the first-mover advantage that Europe has obtained through earlier investments. This overarching goal will be pursued by a number of graphene and 2D materials (2DM) related actions – Research and Innovation Actions (RIAs) and Innovation Actions (IAs) – in collaboration with activities funded by the EU member states and associated countries. The overall coherence of the GF initiative is guaranteed by a Coordination and Support Action (CSA) that allows the separate actions to exploit synergies in their scientific and technological activities and work more efficiently by utilising common services and support functions.
GrapheneEU builds upon the extensive experience and expertise of a consortium that has been responsible for the central support and coordination functions of the Graphene Flagship during the FP7 and Horizon 2020 phases and therefore has access to the broad network of researchers and organisations which will participate in the GF initiative. GrapheneEU will ensure a strong and coherent initiative by providing key support functions in coordination and governance, industrialisation, dissemination, and alignment, enabling the participating projects to identify and utilise synergies in their work, share best practices, and promote interactions with relevant national and regional initiatives. GrapheneEU will help secure a sustained European leadership in 2DM by capitalising on the investments in the Graphene Flagship from the FP7 and Horizon 2020 phases and fostering and facilitating the work to be continued during Horizon Europe.
