Amsterdam, March 19, 2025 -- Quantum technology is evolving rapidly and is set to have a major impact on a wide range of industries. As advancements accelerate, businesses and policymakers must prepare for the implications on their sectors. However, many organizations are still in the early stages of understanding how quantum technology could affect their operations. To bridge this gap, the European Quantum Industry Consortium (QuIC) and Dutch National Quantum Program Quantum Delta NL are hosting Q-Expo on May 14-15, 2025, in Amsterdam. This large-scale, free event connects potential end-users of quantum technology with experts and pioneers in the field, offering a unique opportunity to gain knowledge and strengthen collaboration within the quantum ecosystem.

Preparing for the quantum revolution

The organizers aim to equip businesses and policymakers with practical insights and valuable connections to strategically embrace quantum technology, as industrial adoption still lags behind technological progress. Q-Expo bridges the gap between technological advancements and real-world applications by providing professionals from various industries with an accessible opportunity to explore how quantum technology can transform their sectors.

Quantum Technology in Practice

The event showcases how quantum technology is already transforming industries. In artificial intelligence, quantum computing enhances machine learning efficiency and accelerates model training. In healthcare, quantum solutions improve diagnostics and molecular simulations, significantly speeding up drug development. In finance, quantum algorithms enable more advanced risk analysis, fraud detection, and secure transactions. In cybersecurity, quantum encryption and ultra-secure communication are redefining data protection. In defense and intelligence, quantum technologies enhance sensor precision and strengthen communication systems. These are just a few of the many potential applications of quantum technology that will be featured at Q-Expo.

A Meeting Place for Industry and Innovation

Q-Expo 2025 will take place on May 14-15 in Amsterdam as part of the Quantum Meets event series celebrating the UNESCO International Year of Quantum. Last year, the event attracted more than 800 visitors from around the world. On May 14, the Business Expo will serve as a platform for companies, investors, and industry professionals to explore the latest quantum applications. Visitors will receive support from a team of specialized matchmakers who facilitate targeted connections with relevant experts and organizations.

Nobel Laureates, Policymakers, and Industry Experts on the Future of Quantum Technology

On May 15, the plenary conference will feature in-depth discussions and case studies on the implementation of quantum technology across industries. The plenary program will bring together distinguished speakers, including: Nobel Laureate Alain Aspect, HRH Constantijn of the Netherlands, Sameer Chauhan, Director of the United Nations International Computing Centre and many more representatives from the European Commission, international governments, quantum companies, and multinational corporations will share insights on the strategic and practical applications of quantum technology.
