Taking a leap into the future
The Netherlands is ready for the quantum decade
A strong national ecosystem
What is Quantum
Delta NL?
The Netherlands is a vibrant international hotspot for quantum technology, with leading science, technology and talent. With Quantum Delta NL, we are creating a fully functional national ecosystem for excellence in quantum innovation, for highly talented professionals to bring quantum computers, quantum networks and quantum sensors to the market.
- Forging strong bonds between our five major quantum research hubs and affiliated universities and research centres
- Accelerating developments in network creation, in simulation and in applications in three catalyst (CAT) programmes
- Strengthening large-scale facilities across the country in five locations for nanotechnological research in a National Cleanroom Infrastructure programme
- Kicking off four action programmes to facilitate research and cooperation and to boost social readiness levels
First European Quantum Computer
In the context of the CAT 1 programme, the first demonstrator has been launched: Quantum Inspire. This platform offers access to two promising qubit types from Delft and an emulator for SURFsara, the supercomputer in Amsterdam. Quantum Inspire provides simultaneous access to multiple high-potential qubit platforms. Combining solid hardware with software development is also unique: you can test applications on a real system. And, unlike commercial platforms, Quantum Inspire is no black box; this open platform allows users to create their own value.
