RE: CNN: Graphene's Massive Future
About Us
The Graphene Stakeholders Association (GSA) was founded in the U.S. as a (501(c)6 non-profit) non-profit organization in 2013 to help promote the responsible development of graphene-based products. Graphene is emerging as one of the most promising materials ever discovered – one that has the potential to play a vital role in the development of advanced technologies in key industry segments, including computing, electronics, energy, defense, health care, telecommunications, and transportation. The GSA was created to foster graphene-based education, technical collaboration, scientific exchange, and value and job creation through successful commercialization. It is envisioned that GSA members will be part of a premier network that joins all major graphene stakeholders – researchers, government agencies, producer and user companies.
