The GQC signs a Memorandom of Understanding with the Integrated Quantum Networks Hub

The GQC recently signed a memoriandum of understanding with the Integrated Quantum Networks (IQN) Hub in the UK. There is a long history of collaboration between GQC members and those of the IQN and with the strong support of both initiatives we are looking forward to consolidating and building on those ties and shared ambitions.

Developing Quantum Science – Geneva Quantum Centre receives strategic funding from FUNIGE

The challenges associated with the emergence of quantum technologies are considerable, spanning societal and economic issues as well as security, cybersecurity and sovereignty. Having already profoundly transformed our daily lives, quantum sciences are now entering a new era at the University of Geneva (UNIGE).

The Geneva Quantum Network

The Geneva Quantum Network (GQN) was launched nearly one year ago! This public-private partnership brings together several members of the GQC along with key local entities spanning academia, industry and local governement.
The Geneva Quantum Network is a quantum research infrastructure built on the local fibre optic network of Geneva.

Education //

Providing excellent education at Bachelor, Master and Doctoral levels in Quantum Science and Technology constitutes one of the major motivations for the Geneva Quantum Centre (GQC).

At the Master level, the GQC will support interdisciplinary master programs, with curriculum that combine lectures in quantum information and communications, quantum materials and quantum computation. Members of the GQC contributing to this master programs span both theoretical and experimental aspects relevant for developing successful quantum technologies.

At the doctoral level, GQC will support courses given by international experts and schools, possibly co-organized with the Quantum centres at EPFL Lausanne and ETH Zurich. A long-term goal is to build stronger connections between these major institutions in Switzerland, both to trigger students exchange and interest, and to develop collaborations among research groups.
