UK National Quantum Technologies Showcase 2020

Description

Professor Spiller, Director of the EPSRC Quantum Communications Hub participated in the first virtual national quantum technologies showcase as an exhibitor in the Hub's virtual booth. Due to the restrictions and concerns around Covid-19, the event has been reformatted into an online showcase, on Friday 6th November. The aim of the event was to highlight the expertise, capabilities and advances of quantum technologies in the UK and its real-world impact, with the added benefit of reaching a wider, global audience.

The UK National Quantum Technologies Showcase 2020 built on the success of previous years, demonstrating the progress made by the National Programme, as it entered its second 5-year phase, and the growing commercialisation and industrialisation of quantum technologies in the UK.

The UK National Quantum Technologies Programme (UKNQTP) is set to see over £1 billion of private and public funding go into quantum research and innovation over its 10-year lifetime, aimed at accelerating the translation of quantum technologies into the marketplace, boosting UK business and making a real difference to our everyday lives.
