Fifteen years ago this month, Professor Sir Andre Geim and Professor Sir Kostya Novoselov performed the first successful attempts at creating a synthetic monolayer of carbon atoms, a feat that would earn them a nobel prize 6 years later.
The European Union graphene flagship project has put out a release celebrating progress in the field. Which includes a list of products already on the market using graphene
It also makes some bold claims about the future of the tech
A host of applications for graphene are expected to hit the market 10 to 15 years from now. These are related to (opto)electronics, where graphene can deliver performances orders of magnitude higher than current technologies. The developments in this area could trigger the next-generation of (opto)electronic devices, bringing the 'more-than-Moore' devices to reality.

It is said that graphene and most modern technology including the transistor were stolen/learned from alien civilizations living inside the hollow planet with its entrance at the south pole.
One does not just come across a phenomena and suddenly it is everywhere. The technology was developed by aliens who are light years ahead of us. They may even be selling their technology to us bit by bit. Governments lie about them because all governments know this and use the technology gained from aliens to keep the people ignorant, and if asked about it, it becomes a national security issue.
