PROGRAMME OVERVIEW

DOWNLOAD THE PROGRAMME SUMMARY:

The Quantum Internet Alliance, bringing together world-leading experts from academia, industry, and research organizations, is pushing the boundaries of quantum network technology by developing the ability to connect quantum devices over long distances, enabling them to share quantum information and entanglement - key building blocks for a general-purpose quantum internet. As the opening event of Quantum Meets ‘25, QIA Conference Day brings together world-class researchers, industry pioneers, and policymakers to explore the latest advancements in quantum networking.

FUll event description

The conference opens by addressing fundamental questions: Why do we need a quantum internet? What unique capabilities will it unlock? From enhanced medical data privacy, ultra-secure financial transactions to enhancements of network infrastructures, the sessions will showcase the potential practical benefits driving quantum internet development. These discussions set the stage for understanding how quantum communication can address real-world challenges across industries.

Why Do We Need a Quantum Internet?

Building on this foundation, the event showcases QIA&#039;s progress in transforming these promising applications from laboratory concepts to practical implementations. As leaders in developing and integrating scalable end-node solutions and quantum repeater technologies, QIA demonstrates how breakthrough research achievements are being engineered towards prototype systems and protocol development.

Dear guest,

We regret to inform you that we must cancel today’s Nodes event.

Late last night, a fire broke out on a freight ship carrying metal near the event area. Early this morning, the local fire department informed us that access to the area is prohibited for the entire day due to unsafe air quality. As a result, we have been unable to proceed with event preparations or welcome you in person.

We understand this news may come as a significant inconvenience, especially for those who have made arrangements to join us from abroad. Your safety is our top priority, and we truly appreciate your understanding under these unexpected circumstances.
We are currently assessing our options and will update you as soon as we have more clarity about a possible new date.

If you have any urgent questions, please feel free to contact Shahar Graf at +31 6 41399526.

Thank you for your understanding and support.

Warm regards,
Pieter de Witte & Philippe Bouyer
On behalf of the Quantum Delta NL Board
