Fundamental Quantum Physics and Applications in Space
In the framework of the COST action, QTSpace is organizing a conference in Budapest from the 30.03.2020 to 03.04.2020.
With this conference, we aim to create an opportunity to present and discuss the recent developments on fundamental quantum physics and quantum technologies for space applications. In addition, we strive to address the key aspects of the defined four working groups in dedicated sessions. For the conference, we plan invited talks, contributed talks, and posters. Abstracts can be submitted through the website alongside the registration.
Registration open till February 20, 2020. You are kindly invited to fill in the registration form at the link: https://indico.kfki.hu/event/1072/overview
The workshop will take place at:

QT for Space: Companies and Institutes
We are collecting information about companies that have an interest in QT in Space. We created a dedicated page on the QTSpace website where we showcase them http://www.qtspace.eu/?q=qt-companies-institutes. We welcome applications to include your company or institute. Contact Matteo Carlesso (matteo.carlesso@ts.infn.it) for further information.
European Industry White Paper
The European industry has prepared a White Paper to support the development of the Quantum Communication Infrastructure (QCI) that would in a first stage secure government and critical infrastructure communication across the European Union, and in a second stage prepare the connection of quantum computers and sensors in a full Quantum Information Network. Here you can download the document.
Policy White Paper: seeking the support of the community
The White Paper summarises the state of the art in the development of quantum technologies, with clear potential for space applications, and delineates a clear roadmap for the consideration of major actors in this area, from EC to ESA, the national space agencies and industries. The goal is the drawing of a full framework for the design, development, implementation, and exploitation of quantum technologies for space.
We welcome the support of the White Paper from the European scientific and industrial community, as well as policymakers. You are kindly invited to fill in the registration form at the link:
