🧠 From Research to Reality: Scaling Quantum Technologies in Europe Europe has the potential to lead the next phase of quantum development. But scaling up #quantum computing requires more than scientific progress: it calls for transparent collaboration, reliable #standards, and a strong innovation ecosystem that bridges research, industry and policy. 📅 On December 8, 2025, DIN and the Eclipse Foundation invite you to the on-site workshop “Scaling Quantum” in Berlin. Together, we’ll explore: 🔹 Open Source as a Catalyst – How open tools, community-driven development and transparent collaboration can accelerate innovation across the quantum value chain. 🔹 Industrializing the Quantum Stack – What it takes to move quantum technologies from lab to market. 🔹 The Role of Standards – Why interoperability, compatibility and trusted international frameworks are essential for scale, reliability, and ecosystem growth. 🔹 Empowering SMEs – How agile European players can help shape competitive, future-ready quantum solutions. 🎤 Keynotes from: • Nikolay Tcholtchev (Qrisp) • Oliver Muth (Bundesdruckerei-Gruppe) 📍 Location: DIN e. V., Berlin 🕚 Time: 11:00–02:30 CET 🔗 Sign up here: https://lnkd.in/eCSFSeMk

The Nordic and Baltic countries are well placed to shape the future of quantum technology. The time to act is now.   The new NordForsk report “Nordic Quantum Technology Research Co-operation” assesses Nordic quantum collaboration across research, infrastructure, and innovation in the five Nordic countries Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden and the three Baltic countries Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania.    The report is written by Gudmund Høst, special adviser at NordForsk. He says:  “We now have a golden opportunity to influence and play a key role in the development of new quantum technology. Seizing this opportunity calls for shared priorities, sustained investment, and open collaboration. The time to act is now — with purpose and pace.” #quantum #quantumresearch #quantumtechnology Read the report at https://lnkd.in/dUS4C2qJ
