Space meets Quantum workshop
The end goal of quantum communication is the quantum internet, a network that will eventually connect quantum devices all over the world. With current technologies, a global quantum internet cannot happen. Losses in optical fiber prevent quantum communications over long distances, and satellite links are increasingly considered as a viable solution.

With young and vivid ecosystems in quantum, photonics, and free space optics, the Netherlands is well positioned to bring its contribution to this global endeavor - and take advantage of this opportunity. Yet these ecosystems hardly know each other, and this is precisely what this event is about: having Space and Quantum meet each other.
We are very pleased to invite you on the 27th of June for a workshop on quantum satellite communication to:
- Get to know each other
- Start sketching a global quantum internet enabled by space
- Outline its building blocks
- Map the individual interests of participating stakeholders
We will also open our labs and take you through a tour in our quantum facilities and our satcom demos.
