Graphenest and HyCarb represent Portuguese industry at the first Graphene Week held in Portugal. This event takes place in the city of Porto between September 21 and 25.

The conference brings together more than 400 specialists in graphene and 2D materials, gathering professionals from diverse areas related to this emerging technology.

Among the speakers present, special mention goes to Andre Geim, winner of the Nobel Prize in Physics, who is participating in this edition of the event.

Graphene Week thus returns to Portugal after several editions held in other European countries, consolidating the country as one of the important centers in research and development of advanced carbon materials.

Why this matters

The holding of Graphene Week in Porto positions Portugal as an international reference destination for advanced materials research, attracting global specialists and fostering partnerships for Portuguese companies in the sector, such as Graphenest and HyCarb, which seek visibility and industrial collaborations.
