Quantum Valley Lower Saxony set to start on the 1st of January 2021

The federal state of Lower Saxony, together with universities and research institutes, is developing a quantum computer for Germany by 2025

"Quantum Valley Lower Saxony", as a newly founded initiative, is intended to rapidly advance basic research and industrial transfer. Lower Saxony's top research has good chances in the global race for quantum technologies. The first meeting of the steering committee took place yesterday evening in Hannover at the Ministry of Science and Culture.

The founding institutions of the new research association "Quantum Valley Lower Saxony" are Leibniz Universität Hannover, TU Braunschweig, the Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt (PTB), the Albert Einstein Institute of the Max Planck Society, the recently founded Institute of Satellite Geodesy and Inertial Sensor Technology of the German Aerospace Center (DLR-SI) and Sartorius AG.
