June 28, 2016
From June 29th to July 1st and under the theme ‘Mobile is Me’, the 2016 GSMA Mobile World Congress 2016 in Shanghai, Asia's premier mobile industry event, will be host to more than 1000 exhibitors showcasing new trends and emerging technologies that expect to draw an audience of more than 70,000 participants from all over the world and across the mobile industry and adjacent industry sectors.
The Graphene Pavilion made its first appearance in the MWC 2016 in Barcelona, bringing together research centers, along with start-ups and enterprises working on graphene-related topics, sharing knowledge and expertise in a field that promises to revolutionize mobile technology. Now making its 2nd appearance, this time in Shanghai, the Graphene Pavilion is being curated by ICFO- The Institute of Photonic Sciences, under the supervision of ICREA Prof. at ICFO Frank Koppens, and the China Innovation Alliance of the Graphene Industry (CGIA), with the support of the GSMA.
The pavilion will showcase the latest advances in graphene research as well as graphene-related innovations from both academia and industry with numerous prototypes and demonstrations and products that are now available on the market.
In addition to the Graphene Pavilion exhibition area, ICFO is also coordinating the Graphene Summit taking place on Thursday 30th June, which will cover a series of talks moderated by Prof. Koppens, including a keynote by Prof. Konstantin Novoselov, 2014 Nobel Laureate in Physics, and other top level speakers like Haoefei Shi from CTO Chongqing Graphene, Dr. Rouzet Agaiby from FlexEnable, Dr. Stijn Goossens from ICFO, Simon Harris from Zap&go and Dr. Thanasis Georgiou, from Graphene Security.
