On March 12, 2025, the President of the Slovak Republic, Peter Pellegrini, visited the Institute of Physics SAS, marking a key moment for Slovakia’s quantum technology development. During his visit, we discussed the future of cybersecurity and the crucial role of Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) in protecting sensitive communications. The President witnessed a live demonstration of our entanglement-based QKD prototype, which instantly detected an attempted eavesdropping. His visit highlighted Slovakia’s commitment to advancing quantum-secured communication and strengthening collaboration between science and government.
From March 11th to 13th, our skQCI Project Meeting took place at the Institute of Experimental Physics of the Slovak Academy of Sciences (IEP SAS). Over three dynamic days of presentations and discussions, we delved deep into ongoing experimental research at the institute, sharing insights and forging bonds that will propel our project forward.
At QUTE.sk we aims to provide financial support for research/training visits of academic scholars and employees working in quantum technologies.
