As part of the Building for One Europe initiative, Quantum Internet Alliance (QIA), one of the Quantum Flagship projects, has recently launched the first call for internships for students and young professionals to be part of their mission to build the world's first Quantum Internet.
The new European Quantum Flagship project in quantum communications will aim to develop and deploy quantum cryptography technology that will permit the ultra-secure transmission of information through the network.
Funded by the European Commission under the Digital Europe programme, the QKISS (Quantum Key Industrial SystemS) project aims to develop high-performance, secure and certifiable European quantum key distribution (QKD) systems within 2 to 3 years. Launched in January 2023, the project brings together two high-tech industrial groups, Exail and Thales, and two leading academic teams from the Universities of Paris-Saclay and Sorbonne.
The Quantum Flagship was launched in 2018 as one of the largest and most ambitious research initiatives of the European Union. With a budget of at least €1 billion and a duration of 10 years, the flagship brings together research institutions, academia, industry, enterprises, and policy makers, in a joint and collaborative initiative on an unprecedented scale.
