NCEM – AMAM

Nano-Carbon Enhanced Materials (NCEM)

The Nano-Carbon Enhanced Materials (NCEM) consortium has been run successfully for the last six years. This initiative was launched in April 2012 by the Centre for Business Innovation Ltd (www.cfbi.com), in order to provide the consortium members a unique insight into nano-carbon materials, such as graphene and carbon nanotubes, facilitate the commercial uptake and bring together potential users with a shared interest to address commercialisation challenges. The consortium leader is Dr Bojan Boskovic, CEO of the Cambridge Nanomaterials Technology Ltd. The NCEM consortium is now in the 7th year (NCEM-7). Current and past Consortium members coming from the following organisations: Airbus Group (UK), Prysmian Group (Italy), RTE (France), Rolls Royce (UK), Whirlpool Corporation (USA), ArcelorMittal (Spain), NISSAN (UK-Russia), Tecnalia (Spain), and Johnson Matthey (UK).

The NCEM consortium provides an opportunity to engage with leading companies in the supply chain and also with leading world-class experts in a commercialisation pathfinder programme for a small fraction of time and total costs of alternatives such as consultancy, meetings, workshops and conferences. It could be used to develop nano-carbon commercialisation strategy through an active technology watch programme with a unique insight into the state-of-the-art of carbon nanotechnologies and key player strategies and also to secure IP and develop nano-carbon technologies through participation in collaborative R&D programmes and direct commercialisation partnerships with the NCEM members and presenting organisations.

ADVANCED MATERIALS FOR ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING – AMAM

The 1st Advanced Materials for Additive Manufacturing (AMAM-1) consortium was launched on 21st November 2018 in Barcelona by the Centre for Business Innovation Ltd (www.cfbi.com) in order to provide the consortium members a unique insight into use of advanced materials in additive manufacturing, development of additive manufacturing technologies for various applications, and to facilitate the commercial uptake and bring together potential users with a shared interest to address commercialisation challenges. The consortium leader Dr Bojan Boskovic, from Cambridge Nanomaterials Technology Ltd (www.cnt-ltd.co.uk), is an expert in advanced materials commercialisation including nanomaterials such as carbon nanotubes and graphene. He is responsible for exploitation of results of the two European H2020 projects related to additive manufacturing: Repair3D (www.rapair3D.eu) related to use of recycled composite materials for 3D printing and M3DLoC (www.m3dloc.eu) related to 3D printing of graphene for microfluidic devices for cancer, HIV and TB diagnostics. He is also a leader of Nano-Carbon Enhanced Materials (NCEM) consortium related to commercialisation of nano-carbon materials such as graphene and carbon nanotubes, that after 6 successful consortium series (NCEM-1, NCEM-2, NCEM-3, NCEM-4, NCEM-5, and NCEM-6) with total of 30 meetings in Europe and USA is now in the 7th year (NCEM-7).
