QUROPE Quantum Information Processing and Communication in Europe

Aim and Purpose

About a century ago, the theory of quantum mechanics was born. By virtue of its extraordinary explanatory power this theory has not only dramatically changed to the way we see the world, but also led to a first quantum revolution that has brought us groundbreaking new technologies such as the transistor, solid-state lighting, lasers, and GPS.

Thematic scope of proposals should include one or more of the following areas:

The International Conference on Quantum Computing (ICoCQ) will take place at Ecole Normale Supérieure, Paris, from the 26th to the 30th of November, 2018. It will present an up to date perspective on the thriving field of quantum computing.

The launch of the projects funded within the QuantERA Call 2017 will be officially celebrated at the Projects’ Launch Event in Bucharest, Romania.

The event will take place on:

Quantum effects are in use since the 20th century and have led to market shaping innovations like semiconductor electronics and lasers. In the 21st century, quantum technology developments focus on the controlled quantum state of individual or coupled systems. While this quantum technology is still in the research stage, it offers an enormous potential and a number of initiatives worldwide have been formed to foster the technology and its commercial potential.

We would like to inform you that the Editorial Office of Wiley-VCH is currently preparing the launch of a new journal, Advanced Quantum Technologies (www.advquantumtech.com). The journal is now open for submission.

In a recent post on his blog, EC vice-president and Commissioner for the Digital Single Market, Andrus Ansip, expresses his hopes and vision for the Quantum Technologies.
