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).
On December 3, representatives from the Institute of Physics SAS, QUTE.sk and the Alexander Dubček University of Trenčín gathered to discuss plans for establishing the next node of the Slovak national quantum communication infrastructure (skQCI) in Slovakia. The meeting marked a significant step toward expanding the quantum network to the western part of Slovakia, advancing […]
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 […]
The recent QCI Ireland conference held in Dublin offered a rich array of discussions and presentations from specialists across Europe, aiming to discuss and advance quantum communication technologies. Over the three days, attendees were treated to a series of engaging workshops, keynote speeches, and panel discussions. The event highlighted the rapidly evolving field of quantum communication and its implications for secure data transmission.
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.
The first meeting of Institute of Physics SAS and Faculty of Materials Science and Technology in Trnava (Slovak University of Technology) representatives took place in Trnava with the aim to coordinate the first deployment outside Bratislava area of the secured national quantum communication infrastructure.
Cyber Security is one of the topics in the 11th edition of a successful annual IT conference OpenSlava2023 organized by Accenture in Slovakia. OpenSlava was created to connect the IT world with business, science and students, therefore we are honored that our colleague Dr. Djeylan Aktas will contribute to this topic with his presentation FULLY MESHED QUANTUM NETWORKS.
The project is coordinated by Djeylan Aktas from Institute of Physics of Slovak Academy of Sciences and includes research teams from Comenius University (Faculty of Mathematics, Physics and Informations), Slovak Academy of Sciences (Institute of Experimental Physics and Institute of Electrical Engineering) and International Laser Center of SCSTI.
The school will be held at the Smolenice Castle, history of which dates back to 15th century and which currently serves as the Congress Center of Slovak Academy of Sciences.
Quantum encryption is unbreakable and thus ensures the highest possible level of information protection. That is why the European initiative euroQCI was created with the aim of building such a secured quantum communication infrastructure across the European Union, in which Slovakia is also involved. At the Institute of Physics of the Slovak Academy of Sciences, […]
