Frontier IP Group CEO on €211M Boost for 2D Photonics
Frontier IP Group’s CEO Neil Crabb announced that its portfolio company 2D Photonics has secured a €200 million grant from the Italian government, approved by the EU, to accelerate development of advanced graphene‑based photonic chips. The funding will finance a pilot plant capable of 200 mm (eight‑inch) wafer production, demonstrating large‑scale manufacturing of graphene photonics that can transmit more data, consume less power and require less cooling than silicon, addressing the mounting demand from data‑center and large‑language‑model workloads. Crabb highlighted that Frontier holds a 9.1 % stake in 2D Photonics, translating the grant into roughly a 22‑pence per‑share uplift, and noted backing from Sony, Bosch, NATO and Italy’s sovereign wealth fund, underscoring strong institutional confidence. If successful, the technology could lower compute costs, strengthen Europe’s chip‑supply chain and boost Frontier’s valuation, while the broader portfolio—Alusid, Pulsiv, Graph Energy Tech and others—signals a strategic focus on cost‑effective, sovereign‑grade deep‑tech innovations.
