Although the Netherlands is a small country, it possesses significant expertise and advanced facilities in the realm of quantum technology. The nation's distinct knowledge and innovation landscape is primarily supported by five specialized – yet interconnected – innovation hubs: Delft, Eindhoven, Leiden, Twente and Amsterdam.

Each hub contains research institutes, universities, companies and start- and scale-ups. All these parties have a strong focus on collaborative research and innovation, not just with one another but also with national and international enterprises.
