"Quantum technologies play an important role for the future of the state. The education and training of skilled workers is a central component of Baden-Württemberg's quantum strategy. Our new QuantumBW innovation offensive pools the expertise of leading research institutions, high-tech companies and dynamic start-ups. This will make Baden-Württemberg even more attractive for top talent from all over the world and open up excellent prospects for young people in the field of quantum technology. The Quantum Effects trade fair offers exciting insights into our research and training activities. I am particularly pleased about the Quantum Effects Academy for pupils and students: The specially tailored programme makes quantum technology tangible."
Petra Olschowski | Minister of Science, Research and the Arts Baden-Württemberg
"Our appearance at Quantum Effects was a great success! We are delighted with the very good attendance at our stand and the high level of interest in our topics and exhibits. As a hosting partner, we are also very pleased with the overall response to the entire exhibition and the truly inspiring, high-calibre lecture programme - and of course to Quantum Effects 2024!"
Dr. Katrin Kobe | CEO Bosch Quantum Sensing
"It was great to bring together the growing international quantum industry to discuss the latest developments and most pressing challenges facing the growing quantum industry. The QBN Summit has brought together world leaders, quantum experts, policy makers and end users, making an important contribution to fostering international co-operation and strengthening Europe's sovereignty in the global quantum landscape."
Johannes Verst | CEO Quantum Business Network (QBN)
"Quantum Effects is exactly the trade fair that is now needed to bring quantum technologies out of the lab and into a wide range of applications: Quantum computing, quantum sensor technology and quantum communication offer completely new opportunities and can open up innovative growth areas and new markets for companies. And with the Quantum Effects Award, outstanding international developments in quantum technologies will be honoured and publicised for the first time. We are very pleased about the technological spirit of optimism and the new trade fair with its many highlights!"
Dr Andreas Ehrhardt, Head of Photonics BW & Chairman of OptecNet Germany
"Baden-Württemberg has a unique selling point when it comes to quantum technology. We met the right people, were able to arrange numerous meetings with customers and suppliers and had many valuable chance encounters. Above all, however, the trade fair confirms that we are on the right track. The timing and size of the trade fair were just right. We'll be back again next time!"
Mark Mattingley Scott | General Manager EMEA | Quantum Brilliance
"Recruiting in particular worked very well at Quantum Effects. There were many interested students and people who were open to the topic. There is also a lot to be said in favour of this trade fair from a marketing point of view, as it shows the maturity of the technology and gives it a face. It's no secret that a lot of funding is flowing in Germany - so it's important to communicate the status quo. We'll be back again next time."
Dr. rer. nat Michael Förtsch, Founder and CEO Q.ANT
"An 'ecosystem' of quantum technology can only emerge if it is built up jointly by industry and research. It is therefore extremely important that such an event takes place - and at Quantum Effects you could see that industry is showing an interest in the technology. The topic is international, as is the audience at this trade fair. We met the right clientele here, were able to position ourselves and make good contacts."

Vergangene Woche fand im Quantum & AI Experience Center in Ehningen das erste Treffen im Rahmen der Innovationsinitiative QuantumBW mit dem Schwerpunkt Quantensoftware-Engineering statt. Bei dem zweitägigen Fokustreffen, das vom Fraunhofer IAO organisiert wurde, kamen Forschende sowie Vertreterinnen und Vertreter aus der Industrie zusammen, um gemeinsam über die Fortschritte im Bereich Quantensoftware-Engineering für industrielle Anwendungen zu diskutieren.
Bei einem parlamentarischen Abend am 24. Mai 2023 in der Staatsgalerie Stuttgart stellten Fraunhofer-Experten den aktuellen Stand der Forschung von Quantentechnologien vor. Veranstaltet wurde das Event von Photonics BW, Ziel war es, die Zukunft der Quantentechnologie im Land mit den Mitgliedern des Baden-Württembergischen Landtags sowie Vertretende aus Forschung und Industrie zu diskutieren.
Trotz intensiver wissenschaftlicher Forschung steht die europäische Industrie vor der Herausforderung, Innovationen im Bereich der Quantentechnologie in skalierbare Prozesse und Produkte zu überführen. Das Projekt Qu-Pilot will dies ändern, indem es die bestehende Pilotfertigungsinfrastruktur nutzt, die überwiegend unter den europäischen Forschungs- und Technologieorganisationen (RTO) verteilt ist.
Das Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung (BMBF) beabsichtigt, die internationalen Kooperationen in den Quantentechnologien im Rahmen des „Forschungsprogramms Quantensysteme. Spitzentechnologie entwickeln. Zukunft gestalten“ zu fördern.
Die europäische Normungsorganisationen CEN und CENELEC haben die weltweit erste übergreifende Normungsroadmap für Quantentechnologie veröffentlicht – die Erarbeitung der Normen übernimmt ein neu gegründetes Gremium unter der Sekretariatsführung von DIN.
Stark-Watzinger: Deutschland in den Quantentechnologien einen Platz an der Weltspitze sichern - Bundesregierung stellt gemeinsam mit Wissenschaftsorganisationen drei Milliarden Euro für Zukunftstechnologie bereit
Mit dem Start des »Quantum & AI Experience Center« ist ein weiterer Baustein auf dem Weg zu einem lokalen und landesweiten Campus-Ökosystem erreicht. Als »Nukleus« und gemeinsamer Kooperationsraum der landesweiten Community zu Quantencomputing und -technologien macht es diese über Demonstratoren, Schulungen, Fachkonferenzen und Events erlebbar sowie für Unternehmen nutzbar.
Als zentrales Ergebnis des Verbundforschungsprojekts »SEQUOIA« haben das Fraunhofer IAO und weitere Forschungspartner die Studie »Quantencomputing in der industriellen Applikation« veröffentlicht. Sie bietet einen weitreichenden Überblick und zeigt aktuelle Hard- und Softwarerealisierungen inklusive der gängigsten Algorithmen und industrieller Fallstudien.
Die moderne Quantentechnologie eröffnet viele neue Anwendungsgebiete. Aber sie birgt auch Risiken. So könnten Quantencomputer dank ihrer enormen Rechenleistung selbst modernste Daten-Verschlüsselungsverfahren aushebeln. Um diesem Szenario zuvorzukommen, entwickeln mehrere Partner unter Führung der KEEQuant GmbH einen neuen Ansatz zur sicheren optischen Datenübertragung in drahtlosen Netzwerken mit Hilfe von Licht und Quantenschlüsseln. Das Projekt »QuINSiDa« wird vom Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung BMBF mit einer Summe von 2 Mio Euro gefördert.
Um die in Deutschland vorhandene mikroelektronische Forschung und Entwicklung in Bezug auf Quanten- und neuromorphes Computing zu bündeln und auszubauen, startete die FMD mit vier weiteren Fraunhofer-Instituten, dem Forschungszentrum Jülich und der AMO GmbH am 1. Dezember 2022 ein gemeinsames Vorhaben: Die »Forschungsfabrik Mikroelektronik Deutschland – Modul Quanten- und neuromorphes Computing«. Der dafür benötigte gerätetechnische und strukturelle Aufbau wird vom Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung gefördert.
