Danish Quantum Community is an initiative driven by the national research environments with the aim of uniting Danish quantum technology stakeholders.
On the initiative of the Department of Physics and Astronomy at Aarhus University, Department of Physics at the Technical University of Denmark, and the Niels Bohr Institute at Copenhagen University, Danish Quantum Community was initiated in January 2020 following the first national conference on quantum research and technology held at AIAS at Aarhus University.
The purpose of the Danish Quantum Community is to unite all national stakeholders and to create a room for synergies across research institutions, industries, and funding bodies with the aim of advancing the development of quantum technologies in Denmark.
To engage with the Danish Quantum Community, please contact:
4th Danish Quantum Community Conference
On October 27 and 28, the 4th Danish Quantum Community Conference will be held as a physical event at Aarhus University. Virtual participation will also be available via Zoom. Again, the programme offers contributions from a broad representation from the Danish quantum technology stakeholder landscape, and once again we are pleased to have also international speakers. The detailed programme can be found below.
Registration
Registration for the conference will be handled by the Danish ICT Business Association (IT-Branchen) and we kindly refer you to the registration site here: https://itb.dk/event/danish-quantum-community-4th-conference/
