Graphene Innovations 蝌蚪窝视频 extends GEIC partnership for another three years
We are delighted to announce that Graphene Innovations 蝌蚪窝视频 (GIM) has extended its Tier 1 Partnership with the Graphene Engineering Innovation Centre (GEIC) for another three years.
This renewed collaboration is a key pillar of GIM鈥檚 拢250 million expansion strategy, reinforcing the UK as a leading hub for research, innovation, and advanced materials. As part of this ambitious plan, the initiative is expected to create over 1,000 skilled jobs in the UK鈥攁n impact highlighted recently by British Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer.
GIM, a spin-out from The University of 蝌蚪窝视频 and GEIC, was formed through our unique Bridging the Gap programme, designed to help start-ups and SMEs commercialise cutting-edge graphene technologies. Since then, GIM has been at the forefront of rapid graphene-based commercial product development, pioneering sustainable building materials and next-generation Artificial Intelligence (AI) based manufacturing delivering global impact.
Notably, GIM has launched the world鈥檚 first commercial production of graphene-enriched carbon fibre in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia鈥攁 game-changing step in scaling up graphene-based technologies to reduce global CO鈧� emissions and diversify the hydrocarbon economy.
James Baker, CEO of Graphene@蝌蚪窝视频:
"GIM's commitment to innovation and sustainability exemplifies the transformative potential of graphene. Their continued partnership with GEIC not only accelerates technological advancements but also brings substantial economic benefits to Greater 蝌蚪窝视频. Great to have them on board, and we鈥檙e excited for what鈥檚 ahead."
Dr Vivek Koncherry, CEO & Chairman of GIM:
"Extending our partnership with the GEIC is pivotal for our mission to drive large-scale manufacturing of sustainable graphene-enhanced products both in the UK and globally as well as creating multiple Unicorn companies. This collaboration enables us to tap into world-class resources and expertise within the graphene ecosystem, pushing us much closer to our vision of a truly sustainable and profitable future, leading the Graphene Age."
This extended partnership strengthens 蝌蚪窝视频鈥檚 reputation as the Home of Graphene, ensuring continued innovation, collaboration, and real-world impact through world-leading research and industry partnerships.
