  • Conference, June 6-8
  • In-Person

Platinum Sponsor:

The key stakeholders in the Nordic quantum technology eco-system have teamed up with IQT to launch a unique Nordic quantum technology conference. This year’s conference will be co-hosted by the Danish Quantum Community and the Danish Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

The conference will provide the participants with detailed insights into the rapidly expanding Nordic quantum ecosystem as well as an update on the state-of-the-art of quantum technologies in relation to use cases and applications. This conference will be an annual event with venues rotating between the Nordic countries. The first event, IQT Nordics 2023, will be held in Copenhagen, Denmark, from June 6th to 8th. In 2024, the conference will be held in Helsinki, Finland.

IQT Nordics 2023 will focus on applied quantum technologies and innovation. At the conference, you will hear about the Novo Nordisk Foundation’s Quantum Computing Project, an ambitious programme to develop a fault-tolerant quantum computer for life science applications. In addition, we will introduce you the NATO DIANA Centre for Quantum Technologies and its affiliated Accelerator and Test Centres. There will also be a comprehensive update on research and innovation activities in the Nordics, including a session on VC funding of quantum technology start-ups and spin-outs. Last, but not least, there will also be an opportunity to hear about the national quantum programmes and strategies in the Nordics.

The conference will be held in a beautifully restored warehouse, Eigtveds Pakhus, centrally located in Copenhagen Harbour and within walking distance from Nyhavn and the Little Mermaid. We look forward to welcoming you to Copenhagen during a time of the year characterized by long, warm, and bright evenings.
