Kick starting AQIPCS portfolio activities and exciting collaboration with researchers in the field of quantum technologies

Last week. UBITECH and QUBITECH participated in the kick-off meeting for the Portfolio Activities of “Alternative approaches to Quantum Information Processing, Communication, and Sensing (AQIPCS)” projects, including the HEISINGBERG action, funding by the EIC Pathfinder framework, of which UBITECH is the Project Coordinator and QUBITECH is one of the key Project Partners. The AQIPCS kick-off meeting took place in Brussels on 27 November 2023, hosted by the European Innovation Council (EIC).

In particular, the EIC Program Managers and the representatives of 8 funded projects under the EIC Pathfinder AQIPCS Challenge came together to introduce their projects, create synergies, and discuss on collaboration plans for their needs in terms of technological, regulations, standardization and exploitation.

Dr Alexis Askitopoulos presented the aims and scope of the HEISINGBERG Project on Spatial Quantum Optical Annealer for Spin Hamiltonians and along with Ms. Aslihan Kagnici discussed collaboration opportunities with the other projects.

Stay tuned for further exciting developments!
