The Institute of Quantum Computing and Quantum Technology will conduct research in quantum computing and simulation, quantum cryptography, and quantum sensing, with a strong emphasis on quantum algorithms and quantum software development.

Building on the strong international track record of its team in quantum computing and quantum technologies, IQCQT will explore and develop the uses of quantum computers and other quantum technologies for the benefit of the Hellenic and the EU economy and society at large.

The Institute’s focus will extend across the spectrum—from long-term, high-quality basic science to application-driven research, carried out through targeted research and technology projects in close collaboration with industry partners.

IQCQT will also play an active role in the education and training of professionals and young talent in quantum technologies and quantum engineering, by participating in postgraduate programs and developing specialized courses tailored to different levels of expertise.
