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.
At the end of the year, we hosted two significant delegations to showcase the country’s progress in research and innovation, supported by the European Union’s Recovery and Resilience Facility (RRF).
