France Quantum’s Post

⏮️ Throwback | Quantum Night At our embassy, the Innovation 💡 Department collaborates closely with Dutch and French innovation clusters to promote bilateral and European partnerships. A good example of this is the collaboration in the field of quantum technology ⚛️. With this key technology we are on the eve of a technological revolution that can contribute to solutions for all kinds of major societal challenges, including healthcare, energy transition, secure communication and researching new materials   Both The Netherlands 🇳🇱 and France 🇫🇷 recognize the strategic importance of quantum technology and have launched joint initiatives to advance research, development and innovation in this field. The first step in the Franco-Dutch collaboration was boosted by the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding 📑 on Quantum collaboration in 2021, followed by several milestones highlighted in the video below 👇.   The latest bilateral quantum event organised at the residence of our Ambassador, Jan Versteeg, was the Quantum Night on the 23rd of May showcasing the next step: 💫 The impact of quantum applications for the industry and tertiary sector. 🎬 Video by Jean-Yves Chantoiseau   🙏 Many thanks to all the parties involved: Quantum Delta NL, France Quantum, Airbus, Alliander, Crédit Agricole CIB, TotalEnergies, Embassy of France in the Netherlands and also the Young Quantum Talents paving the way for strengthening bilateral and European quantum collaboration. #Quantum #QuantumTechnology #innovation #EuropeanPartnerships #NLFRtoujoursproches #Industry #TechLeadership   Philippe Bouyer, Dr. Ulrich Mans, Liran Naaman, Damien GROMIER, Camille Guillard, Stefan Koreneef, Joannette Polo, Esther Hogenhout, Lucienne Vaartjes, Anaïs Vassallo, Jean-Jacques Pierrat, Marnix Satter, Jasper Simon Krauser, Ali El Hamidi, Jean-Patrick MASCOMERE, Jelte Zwetsloot, Deborah Nas, Netherlands Innovation Network France

🔴[#𝐒𝐑𝐈𝐀𝟐𝟎𝟑𝟎 - 𝐎𝐟𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐇𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐭𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐞 European Commission] Quantum Flagship experts, policymakers, and European Commission representatives converged in Brussels today to unveil the 𝑆𝑡𝑟𝑎𝑡𝑒𝑔𝑖𝑐 𝑅𝑒𝑠𝑒𝑎𝑟𝑐ℎ 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝐼𝑛𝑑𝑢𝑠𝑡𝑟𝑦 𝐴𝑔𝑒𝑛𝑑𝑎 - 𝑆𝑅𝐼𝐴 2030. This roadmap charts a course for 🇪🇺 Europe’s quantum journey, promoting economic and technological sovereignty. 💡 Key highlights include a commitment to paving the way for an autonomous European quantum ecosystem. With high public funding, a robust workforce, and thriving research hubs, Europe is set to become a global quantum technology powerhouse. The roadmap aims to position the EU as the ‘𝑄𝑢𝑎𝑛𝑡𝑢𝑚 𝑉𝑎𝑙𝑙𝑒𝑦’ of the world, strengthening EU’s role on the global stage. This strategic agenda aligns with the recent European #QuantumDeclaration, confirming Europe’s commitment to quantum excellence and innovation. 💁♀️ Read the SRIA : https://shorturl.at/gjqE2 🚀Let’s make Europe the quantum capital of the world! #QuantumValleyDreams #EuropeQuantumReady

Today, our Trilligent team in Brussels Timea Strihova, Lusine Petrosyan and Ainhoa Segurola Uli, along with our Advisory Board member Pablo Asbo (LLM), attended the "Quantum Technologies - How Can We Lead in the Industries of the Future?" event organized by Euractiv and The International Center for Future Generations - ICFG.   Here are some of our key takeaways from the conversation: ⭕ Quantum technologies will be a transformative force, but the industry is still in its early stages. There is a vast space for innovation, especially in critical areas like public health, security, and supply chains. ⭕ At the same time, when we talk about quantum, everyone's mind jumps to quantum computers, a thing of the future. Quantum sensors, though, are very much a reality right now and deserve more attention. ⭕ While Europe has made strong public investments in quantum technologies, it still lags behind in private capital, which is crucial for scaling and industrial development. According to Mario Draghi's report, EU companies in the quantum sector attract only 5% of global private funding, compared to the 50% share secured by U.S. companies. ⭕ The European Commission is working on a Quantum Pact, expected to become public in the next months, meant to be as an umbrella to coordinate all quantum-related initiatives on EU.   The event was a great opportunity to delve deeper into the potential of quantum technologies and connect with peers in Brussels. We also gained insights into NATO's role in shaping quantum strategies and the importance of building global alliances for future tech.   If you're interested in understanding how emerging quantum policies might impact your business, or how to engage in the policy discussions shaping this space, feel free to reach out!
