What does it mean to scale diamond for quantum technologies and applications, and which aspects are most relevant today?

This meeting brings together experts from research, industry, and the quantum ecosystem to discuss how diamond can be scaled to support quantum technologies and applications. The exchange will focus on perspectives around diamond growth, processing, and supply considerations, and how these aspects influence the development and deployment of diamond enabled quantum technologies across areas such as quantum computing, quantum sensing, and related fields.

Participants will gain insights into current approaches and open questions around scaling diamond for quantum use cases, explore shared challenges and opportunities, and reflect on implications for technology development and market relevance. Beyond structured inputs, the session is designed as an interactive exchange, enabling active contribution from participants.

Whether you are working on diamond materials, quantum hardware, applications, or strategic and market related topics, this meeting offers a space to connect perspectives and identify common directions for advancing diamond based quantum technologies through scalable solutions.

We look forward to an open and constructive discussion with the quantum community.

Key highlights:

  • Perspectives on diamond quantum technologies
  • Discussion of scalability considerations and enabling factors
  • Exchange on emerging application and market directions
  • Lab Tour at TNO
  • Interactive format encouraging active participation
  • Community BBQ
