Bratislava, April 21. – 24. 2026 — Gravity is the faintest of nature’s forces – and yet it shapes the universe. Last week, scientists gathered in Bratislava to ask a bold question: what happens when gravity meets the quantum world? Bratislava hosted global experts on quantum information and gravity at the international conference Observers and […]
In April 2026, Prof. Barry C. Sanders, a leading expert in quantum information science, visited Slovakia as part of the eduQUTE programme. His lecture series and colloquium brought together students, researchers and professionals, offering insights into quantum computing and its broader context.
Anton Zeilinger, a pioneer of quantum communication, became renowned for his research on quantum entanglement, quantum state teleportation, and practical applications of quantum cryptography. His experiments laid the foundation for quantum networks and global quantum-secured communication. Collaborations with Slovak physicists and projects demonstrate how his work inspires the development of quantum technologies in Central Europe.
The international workshop HOAQS 2025 brought leading experts in higher-order quantum structures to the High Tatras. As one of the first events of its kind, it created a platform for in-depth scientific exchange, new collaborations, and shaping future research directions in this emerging field.
RCQI at the Institute of Physics of the Slovak Academy of Sciences hosted Prof. Byoung S. Ham from the Gwangju Institute of Science and Technology, South Korea, for two fascinating talks about quantum communication and quantum sensing.
What leads someone to return to Slovakia after spending years at one of Europe’s most prestigious research institutions? For Marián Janík, the answer is not only about quantum technologies, scientific achievements, or career opportunities. It is also about curiosity, the search for truth, a connection to home, and the conviction that a scientific environment should […]
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.
The European Quantum Technologies Conference (EQTC) 2024, held in Lisbon, Portugal, from November 18 to 20, and QUTE.sk was delighted to participate in this landmark event.
The Time in Quantum Theory 2024 (TiQT 2024) conference concluded with resounding success, bringing together a vibrant community of physicists, researchers, and thought leaders at the magnificent Smolenice Castle in Slovakia. Held from September 10-13, 2024, the event provided a picturesque setting, nestled in the heart of nature, where discussions about the nature of time in quantum theory flourished.
We are pleased to announce that the fellowQUTE program is officially open for applications! This call represents a significant step towards one of our project’s key objectives: to establish an international training center for quantum technologies in Central-Eastern Europe. The fellowQUTE program is designed to foster scientific exchange, enhance collaboration, and provide competitive postdoctoral fellowships in the […]
