Project ARMS at Graphene Week 2025: Showcasing Innovation in 2D Materials
From September 22 to 26, the city of Vicenza, Italy, hosted Graphene Week 2025, Europe’s leading event dedicated to graphene and related 2D materials. This year, Project ARMS was proud to be part of the vibrant scientific community gathered to explore the future of advanced materials.
Representing the ARMS consortium were Hamed Pourkheirollah from Tampere University and Jinhua Sun from Chalmers University of Technology, both of whom played an active role in showcasing the project’s progress and engaging with fellow researchers.
Graphene Week provided an excellent platform to connect with experts from
across Europe and beyond. Hamed and Jinhua engaged in meaningful discussions on
the diverse applications of graphene and 2D materials, from electronics to
energy systems.
Project ARMS hosted a dedicated booth at the event, where visitors could
learn about the project’s objectives, recent developments, and future
directions. The booth served as a hub for exchanging ideas and exploring
potential collaborations with other EU-funded initiatives and research groups.
A key highlight was the presentation of Project ARMS during the annual
meeting, where Hamed and Jinhua introduced the project to the broader
graphene community. Their talk emphasized ARMS’s mission to advance the
integration of 2D materials into real-world applications, particularly in the
field of energy storage and conversion.
The ARMS team also participated in the Project Managers Network meeting, a valuable
opportunity to share experiences and strengthen synergies across EU-funded
projects. This collaborative spirit is central to the success of initiatives
like ARMS, which thrive on interdisciplinary exchange.
In addition to the official program, Hamed and Jinhua joined a podcast
recording organized by the GRAPHERGIA project, hosted by Maria
Abrahamsson, Director of the Graphene Flagship. The discussion focused on
the role of graphene and 2D materials in energy storage systems,
offering insights into how ARMS is contributing to this transformative field.
Project ARMS extends its gratitude to the Graphene Flagship for
organizing such a well-curated and impactful event. Graphene Week 2025 was not
only a showcase of scientific excellence but also a celebration of
collaboration and innovation.
