James Baker, CEO of Graphene@Manchester
COVID-19 is turning the way we do research and innovation on its head, accelerating the journey from idea to reality. The Manchester model of innovation – fail fast or learn and move on rapidly – has never been more important.
2D materials like the award-winning graphene, first isolated at Manchester, can lead the way to a more sustainable recovery in industries reeling from the pandemic, such as aerospace. And COVID-19 has provided the unexpected impetus to transform the speed at which research and discovery is turned into products and applications - taking months rather than years in some of the most rapid examples of commercialisation ever seen.
