This summit is one of the important tasks of CIGIU’s 2018 work plan. The success of the summit once again reflects the guideline of CIGIU: proceeding from China and embracing the world, CIGIU establishes an inclusive platform for international collaboration in graphene industry, science & technology, and finance, setting up a sharing mechanism for resources covering industrial research information and intellectual property. It facilitates industrial application and production technology of graphene so as to promote the development of global graphene industry.
