Graphene manufacturer Versarien is set to double the size of its production facility in Gloucestershire, creating a number of highly skilled research jobs.
The advanced engineering materials company told BusinessLive construction of a 10,000 sq ft innovation centre at its site in the Forest of Dean has been completed, with the firm now just waiting for the facility to be supplied with electricity.
The laboratory space, an expansion of the firm's existing premises in Longhope business park, has been earmarked for future projects and job creation, including researcher, technician and engineering roles.
