Event Details

As part of the BMBF umbrella project quantum communication Germany “SQuaD we are pleased to invite you to an exciting workshop on Quantum Communication. Further information on SQuaD, its goals, and activities can be found on the project website.

Aiming to shape the future of the Quantum Communication industry in Germany and the European Unition we’ll discuss emerging trends, needs, and applications, with a specific focus on integration, eavesdropping and critical factors such as politics and investments.

Our workshop provides an interactive and collaborative environment where experts from various backgrounds, including research, development, and application, as well as politics and investors come together to explore suitable formats and methods for knowledge exchange and the initiation of collaborations.

With the industry talks experts share firsthand insights, their experiences, successes, and challenges, providing valuable context and lessons learned.

The event will take place on February 28 at the historic home of Galileo Galilei – Villa il Gioiello (‘The Jewel’) in Florence, Italy, and will be hosted by QTI and the CNR-INO.
