OXFORD, Miss., Nov. 04, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- New Media Lab LLC, an Oxford, Mississippi-based digital media company and think-tank, is tracking the development of graphene, a new nanomaterial that many believe will change the world. The company has developed a global forum to bring together researchers and entrepreneurs.
“We have launched grapheneentrepreneur.com as a global portal to collect and share information and facilitate advances in the field,” Allison Buchanan, CEO of New Media Lab LLC, said. “Entrepreneurs around the world are watching rapid developments with graphene for opportunities to improve existing products and develop new ones.”
While graphene is a derivative of basic graphite, a means to isolate the one-atom-thick crystal form and its revolutionary properties were only recently discovered in 2004,” said Dr. Ed Meek, President of New Media Lab LLC.
This breakthrough could ultimately rival the discovery of electricity, and its potential is almost beyond imagination,” added Meek, “Graphene is 200 times stronger than steel while being flexible and the most conductive material known in the world.”
Global researchers and leaders envision applications that will impact almost every aspect of society, and new uses are being discovered in most every field imaginable – from biomedical, water filtration and sports equipment to defense, aerospace and energy.
“Grapheneentrepreneur.com is a comprehensive collection of news, research and other information on graphene which is gathered from around the world 24/7,” Buchanan added. “We are at the forefront of a new age of innovation, and we intend to be a leading force in the field.”
Meek said, “Graphene could replace silicon, the backbone of current communications technology, creating a new generation of products in every field that are faster, smaller and more powerful than ever.”
Meek will be attending the ID TechEx/Graphene & 2D Materials USA show Nov. 16-17, 2016 in Santa Clara, California. He will be meeting with many involved in the industry as well as talking to those interested in being on the advisory panel. Meek can be contacted directly at ed.meek@grapheneentrepreneur.com or by phone at (662) 801-9247.
