The new initiative “Berlin Quantum” will consolidate the expertise of Berlin’s universities and research institutes, initiate and expand collaborations between science and industry, and create a nationally and internationally competitive ecosystem for quantum technologies. The initiative aims to strengthen both the fundamentals of quantum research and the transfer of quantum technologies into practical applications. For the industry-oriented implementation, partners Humboldt Innovation, Berlin Partner, and OpTecBB are part of the initiative, which is funded by the Berlin Senate (Department for Science and WEB).
The project is scheduled to run from January 1, 2023, to December 31, 2026.
