The global discussion platform Open Innovations Forum 2013 is dedicated to emerging technologies and furthering innovation prospects and collaboration worldwide.
Prime Ministers of Russian Federation, Finland and France will be the Guest of Honor of the “Open Innovations” Forum. This event unites representatives of business, policy, science and education to gain a holistic perspective, exchange ideas and to grasp today’s critical global innovation trends.

In the first day of the event Dmitry Medvedev, Jyrki Katainen and Jean-Marc Ayrault will meet with the innovation, entrepreneur and scientific community representatives, as well as with the “100 Innovators” project participants and will take part at the “Proven State Leadership Strategies in a Hyper-Connected World” plenary session. The Forum focused on Disruptive Technologies and Game Changers—trailblazers and companies that significantly change the rules of the global markets. Crucial issues to be discussed: examine how global markets are being affected under the influence of the new Game Changers and learn how to speed time to market and sustain competitiveness.
As part of the Open Innovations Forum on November 1st, was held RUSNANOPRIZE 2013 award ceremony. RUSNANO CEO Anatoly Chubais and Karlsruhe Institute of Nanotechnology professor Herbert Gleiter presented the annual international award in nanotechnology, RUSNANOPRIZE 2013. RUSNANOPRIZE is established to promote Science and Business Integration, Public Awareness of the Achievements in the Nanotechnology Area, International Cooperation, Acknowledgement of the Role of Scientists and Manufacturers.
Professor Yury Gogotsi, Drexel University, USA, and Oleksiy Gogotsi, Materials Research Centre Director, visited Forum‘s sections and Science& Technology exibition Open Innovations Expo 2013. key Construction directions of Open Innovations Expo exibition: Engineering,Energetics, Electronics, Medicine, Information Technologies and Consumer Goods.







Open Innovations Expo 2013 was held as a global platform to introduce Russian and international innovative products and technologies, to share experience in realization of successful innovative projects, and to enable effective interaction between exhibitors, government, business and science institutions.

MXenes potential applications include sensors, wound healing materials, and drug delivery systems. A recent study explored how different synthesis methods affect the safety and performance of MXenes. By comparing etching conditions and intercalation strategies, researchers discovered that fine-tuning the surface chemistry of MXenes plays a crucial role in improving biocompatibility. These results provide practical guidelines for developing safer MXenes and bring the field one step closer to real biomedical applications.
Exellent news, our joint patent application with Drexel University on highly porous MAX phase precursor for MXene synthesis published. Congratulations and thanks to all team involved!
Last Call! Have you submitted your abstract for IEEE NAP-2025 yet? Join us at the International Symposium on "The MXene Frontier: Transformative Nanomaterials Shaping the Future" – the largest MXene-focused conference in Europe this year! Final Submission Deadline: May 15, 2025. Don’t miss this exclusive opportunity to showcase your research and engage with world leaders in the MXene field!
We are excited to announce the publication of latest review article on MXenes in Healthcare. This comprehensive review explores the groundbreaking role of MXenes—an emerging class of 2D materials—in revolutionizing the fields of medical diagnostics and therapeutics. Read the full article here: https://doi.org/10.1039/D4NR04853A.
Congratulations and thank you to our collaborators from TU Wien and CEST for very interesting work and making it published! In this work, an upscalable electrochemical MXene synthesis is presented. Yields of up to 60% electrochemical MXene (EC-MXene) with no byproducts from a single exfoliation cycle are achieved.
Congratulations to all collaborators with this interesting joint work!
Thank you to our collaborators for the amazing joint work recently published in Graphene and 2D Nanomaterials about MXene–silk fibroin composite films aiming to develop materials with tunable electronic and thermal properties
Dr. Oleksiy Gogotsi, director of MRC and Carbon-Ukraine, innovative companies that are among the leaders on the world MXene market, visited 2024 MRS Fall Meeting & Exhibit. together with Dr. Maksym Pogorielov, Head of Advanced Biomaterials and Biophysics Laboratory, University of Latvia.
MRC and Carbon-Ukraine team visited the 3rd International MXene conference held at Drexel University on August 5-8, 2024. Conference brought together the best reserchers and leading experts on MXene field. 
Together with colleagues from the University of Latvia, MRC/Carbone Ukraine, Adam Mickiewicz University, University Clinic Essen, and others, we have developed a novel concept involving the binding of antibodies to MXenes. In our research, we utilized anti-CEACAM1 antibodies to develop targeted photo-thermal therapy for melanoma (in vitro), paving the way for future in vivo studies and clinical trials. For the first time, we demonstrate the feasibility of delivering MXenes specifically targeted to melanoma cells, enabling the effective ablation of cancer cells under near-infrared (NIR) light. This new technique opens up vast potential for the application of MXenes in cancer treatment, diagnostics, drug delivery, and many other medical purposes.
