Today marks the end of many @QuantumFlagship projects like #CiViQ_quantum! 3 ½ years of research & development in Quantum Communication.

We do a recap of the project and its accomplishments 👇

#CiViQ_quantum gathered 21 partners from all over Europe to develop quantum-enhanced & physical layer security services, combined with modern cryptographic techniques.

The aim: To enable unparalleled applications and services in quantum communications.

The goals:

✅ Build flexible & modular networks
✅ Validate & benchmark for datacenters & telecom infrastructures
✅ Develop GHz modulation rate systems
✅ Prepare for the next generation of quantum systems

Eleni Diamanti from @CNRS explained how advancing both the QKD technology itself and the emerging software network will help in securing critical infrastructure, transferring medical data or in the financial sector.

#CiViQ_quantum @QuantumFlagship

We interviewed @MellanoxTech, @NextworksSrl @Quside, @ICFOnians, @CNRS & telecom operators #TelefonicaI+D to see what type of hardware & software was being developed and how the telecom industry could benefit from this tech!

#CiViQ_quantum

There have been three years of nonstop!

We have written a lot of news, appeared in media and press, participated in the #MWC19, #MWC21 & #MWC22, and many other conferences.

But most importantly, we had an amazing time doing what we love!

⚛️Going beyond the frontiers of knowledge, doing research and creating new technologies that can have a positive impact on society⚛️

A big THANK YOU to all the consortium!!!
