The ultimate vision of the GraphCAT Community is to establish Catalonia as an international reference in graphene research, development and innovation, with multiple local industries deriving strong competitive advantage in the global marketplace through the integration of proprietary graphene technologies into their products and services.
GraphCAT will achieve this by cultivating a strong community of international graphene researchers, practitioners and businesses, bringing their combined expertise to the development of cutting-edge graphene technologies for and by Catalan industry. It will also provide support for the transfer of technology to industry, as well as the creation of spin-off companies.
Specifically, it will do so through GraphCAT projects, led by Community members and co-funded through the Catalan regional research and innovation strategy for smart specialisation, RIS3CAT.

AMO’s mission as a non-profit SME is to bridge the gap between university research and industrial application. In joint projects and in bilateral cooperation, research and development results are transferred to industry for the preservation and creation of jobs. The potential of nanotechnology is thus tapped in fields of application such as information technology, biotechnology and environmental technology. AMO operates a state-of-the-art 400 m² clean room under the direction of Prof. Lemme and offers a rang of services from consulting to prototype development.

The "HOWDI" research group: Van der Waals hetero-structures of low dimensionality "is both a national research group (GDR 2112) and an international coordination network (IRN" Graphene and co). The ambition of the GDR is to bring together and interact with teams interested in the study of all the physical properties that emerge from these van der Waals assemblies.

The MINOS LabEx (MInatec NOvel devices Scaling Laboratory of Excellence), is an alliance of Grenoble based academic laboratories from CNRS, University Grenoble Alpes, Grenoble Institute of Technology and CEA/Leti. MINOS Lab enables transfer of know how and expertise generated in its laboratories with micro and nanoelectronics industrials partners. Patents and Joint Development Programs with OEM and Suppliers along with national and international collaborations through dedicated programs, are also some of the key ouput of MINOS.

LANEF is a ‘Laboratoire d’Excellence’ or “Labex” that associates six fundamental research labs based in Grenoble: Institut Néel, IRIG, G2Elab, LNCMI, LPMMC and LiPhy. It enhances synergies across research teams, strengthens education through research, deepens connections with R&D partners, and structures international collaborations. Its strategic funding actions allow for the organisation of scientific events and the acquisition of specific equipment and offers new opportunities for students and high-level scientists to join this vibrant scientific community.
