2D materials are far more than a scientific curiosity; they represent a transformative frontier in materials science, poised to redefine performance boundaries across diverse technological domains.

From graphene to transition metal dichalcogenides, phosphorene, and MXenes, the 2D materials ecosystem is reshaping energy, electronics, photonics, healthcare, aerospace, and quantum technologies.

This conference serves as an interdisciplinary platform connecting academia, industry, and policy makers worldwide.

The Indian Institute of Technology Indore (IITI), established in 2009 as a second-generation IIT, is located at Simrol on a 501-acre permanent campus that became fully operational in 2015.

IITI offers a broad spectrum of undergraduate, postgraduate, doctoral, and interdisciplinary programs and was the first IIT to launch an MS in Data Science and Management in collaboration with IIM Indore.

Recognized as an Institute of National Importance, IIT Indore consistently ranks among India’s leading institutions and has contributed over 7,500 international publications and 165+ patents, reflecting its strong research and innovation ecosystem.

Indore, the largest city and commercial capital of Madhya Pradesh, is located in the Malwa region and was established in the 16th century as a major trading hub along the Kanh and Saraswati rivers.

The city is renowned for its rich heritage, vibrant culture, and cleanliness, with popular attractions such as Rajwada, Lal Bagh Palace, Kanch Mandir, and the Annapurna and Ganpati temples.

Indore also serves as a gateway to prominent nearby destinations, including the Jyotirlingas at Ujjain and Omkareshwar, as well as Mandu, Maheshwar, and scenic spots like Patalpani and Choral Dam. June-July offers pleasant weather marking onset of monsoon with greenery all around, suitable for visitors.
