Events
Optica Quantum 2.0 Conference and Exhibition
23 June – 27 June 2024 | Rotterdam, Netherlands
Stimulating and facilitating the development of quantum information science and technology.
On the edge of a technology revolution, Quantum 2.0 refers to the development and use of quantum superposition and entanglement in large engineered systems. Examples of such large quantum systems include quantum computers and simulators, quantum communication networks and arrays of quantum sensors. New technologies will go far beyond the (quantum 1.0) capabilities offered by single systems.
