The European Commission has approved a €211 million Italian state aid grant for CamGraPhIC to develop photonic optical transceivers based on graphene.
The EU statement stated that the technology can be used across sectors including automotive, telecommunications, aerospace and defense. The project will be carried out in Pisa in Tuscany and in Bergamo in Lombardy. The work will involve collaborations with universities and research and technology organizations.
The funding will be provided as a direct grant to CamGraPhIC.
The measure was assessed under EU state aid rules and approved under Article 107(3)(c) of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union and the EU’s 2022 framework for research, development and innovation.
