NQSTI

The National Quantum Science and Technology Institute

The National Quantum Science and Technology Institute (NQSTI) is a consortium funded under Piano Nazionale di Ripresa e Resilienza (PNRR) in the framework of the European Union - NextGenerationEU. It was officially launched in January 2023 and will run for three years. Our ambitious goals are:

  • to team up Italian entities carrying out competitive and innovative research in the field of quantum science and technology (QST), and
  • to stimulate future industrial innovation in this field, providing a forum in which novel ideas and opportunities are transferred to companies. Moreover, a significant fraction of the project resources is dedicated to support a comprehensive education program,to favour technology transfer to companies,and to implement a robust outreach program to make QST pervasive in the society."
