Researchers at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory joined forces with EPB of Chattanooga and the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga to demonstrate the first transmission of an entangled quantum signal using multiple wavelength channels and automatic polarization stabilization over a commercial network with no downtime.

Quantum sensors pave the way for innovation in sensing technology. They are set to revolutionise a variety of sectors, spanning from health care to space and defence. VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland is at the forefront of quantum sensor development, aiming to commercialise the technology for the benefit of many. The research institute strongly believes that broader adoption of quantum technologies has a strong and positive societal and environmental impact.

Senate Majority Whip Dick Durbin (D-IL) and U.S. Senator Steve Daines (R-MT) today introduced legislation to advance the United States’ capacity to invest in quantum information science and research and development (R&D) through the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE). As R&D advances quantum science, engineering, and technology, the DOE Quantum Leadership Act of 2024 would reinvigorate R&D projects at DOE by authorizing $2.5 billion in funding over the next five years—well above the $625 million for DOE-related programs laid out in the now-expired National Quantum Initiative Act of 2018. The DOE Quantum Leadership Act would also provide DOE the authority to expand its current quantum R&D initiatives.

Toshiba Corporation has announced that it will make a corporate venture capital investment in Quantonation II, a fund operated by Quantonation Ventures, a leading quantum technology investment fund based in Europe and the US. Toshiba has committed to invest in Quantonation II, with the aim of accelerating research and development of quantum technology and advancing the practical application of quantum-based services through collaboration with Quantonation and the companies in its portfolio.

Quandela, European leader in quantum computing, announces the appointment of Michel Paulin to its Board of Directors. Michel, a recognized expert in the digital industry, was previously CEO of telecommunications pioneer SFR and European sovereign cloud leader OVHcloud. He will bring his experience to Quandela and enrich the company’s strategic vision.

Richard Versluis will become a Quantum and Computer Engineering (QCE) fellow at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Mathematics, and Computer Science at Delft University of Technology. He will continue his work as Principal Systems Engineer at TNO.

Researchers at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory tested a quantum computing approach to an old challenge: solving classical fluid dynamics problems.

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.

The Photonics and Quantum Sensing Technology Lab at IIT Bombay is ready with some technologies that can give the newly initiated Quantum Sensing and Metrology Hub a kick start into the world of quantum technologies.

Quantum information scientists at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory successfully demonstrated a device that combines key quantum photonic capabilities on a single chip for the first time.
