Our Community's Culture
The Quantum Delta NL Manifesto
The Quantum Delta NL community is on a mission to grow the quantum ecosystem in the Netherlands. The interdisciplinary teamwork within this ecosystem, crossing the boundaries of individual organizations, defines our success.
Therefore, a safe and motivating culture is essential. A culture in which people thrive and feel welcome to engage with everything they have to offer, regardless of their gender, background, sexual orientation or religion.
To define our desired culture, our community co-created a manifesto. A starting point for policies and conversations.
The Quantum Delta NL Manifesto
To define our desired culture, our community co-created a manifesto. A starting point for policies and conversations.
The process
Culture is a living thing that evolves with the people who define it. Our manifesto came about by a co-creation process in which more than 100 community members participated. It is the result of our collective wisdom. And it’s now up to all of us to make it happen.
Who we are
Quantum Delta NL is a leading quantum ecosystem for Europe.
As an ecosystem, we aim to achieve profound societal impact with our deep technology innovation.
We connect people within the field of quantum and beyond to learn, collaborate and accomplish even more together.
Our purpose
We are at the frontier of quantum technology.
Together we form a leading ecosystem that thrives in the Netherlands for Europe’s competitiveness.
We aim to offer quantum solutions for global challenges to contribute to a sustainable future.
Together we quest
We come from a long and shared journey of exploring quantum technology. Our collective knowledge is far greater than what we bring individually and balance is achieved through the different, accountable players, just like in ecosystems in nature. Our ecosystem is organised to capture innovative potential by sharing knowledge, cooperation and diverse interactions. In our quest, we put collaboration over competition and co-creation over procedures.
We pursue excellence
We come from a long and shared journey of exploring quantum technology. Our collective knowledge is far greater than what we bring individually: it’s a deep pool of resources. Balance is achieved through the different, accountable players, just like in ecosystems in nature. Our ecosystem is organised to capture innovative potential by sharing knowledge, cooperation and diverse interactions. In our quest, we put collaboration over competition and co-creation over procedures. It takes courage and perseverance to break down existing barriers and journey forth together.

We advocate inclusivity
A network with different backgrounds is fundamental to avoid making the same human errors that were made in the past. We accept and value all differences and are fully aware that we have to make room for the emotions that come with leading as one. The achieve equal access for all, we must operate in full view and acknowledge that some people in the worldwide field of deep tech still face inequality – in both blatant and subtle forms.
We shape society
The difficulties society faces cannot be solved by the technologies and the thinking that created them; we must challenge the status quo. For the benefit of all, we facilitate the transfer of knowledge and technology between science, business and society. We put societal challenges over our ego and our children’s children over short-term gains.
"Nature teaches us how to work together as people."
"In our community, people are open to good ideas wherever they come from."
"To be inclusive, you first need to care about the people. It starts with a deep belief in the value of nurturing diversity."
"If you mix academics with straightforward business, you can create exciting chemistry. Working together on emerging technology may be the ideal starting place to change our loyalty to future generations."
Nodes of One Network
As Quantum Meets' main event, we celebrated the 3rd edition of our annual Nodes of One Network event. Our ecosystem came together to connect with old and new friends, discussed progress and celebrate this incredible community!
