Why are quantum techno­logies the future?

Secure | Fast | Efficient

Quantum technologies represent a new resource to be wielded for social and economic progress, enhancing security, enabling unprecedented low latency in technological interactions, and lowering energy consumption. Imagine a future in which interactions with robots and participation in virtual worlds such as the Metaverse occur seamlessly and in an extremely secure manner. QUARKS is here to realise these innovations.

The QUARKS Vision

An Innovative Approach for All
QUARKS is not just aimed at industry experts—we are committed to making quantum technologies understandable and accessible to a wide audience. Through innovation days at companies, educational models for schools, and participatory events in public institutions, we bring quantum communication networks to skilled workers, students, and everyday citizens.

Where we operate

TU Dresden and TU Munich are the scientific hubs where QUARKS fosters the development of new talents, while simulatenously aiming to address the shortage of specialized professionals in the field of quantum communication networks. We offer training modules for skilled workers and students, combining theory and practice to tackle the challenges of the future.
Join the Quantum Revolution
Being a part of QUARKS means actively contributing to the development of the communication networks of tomorrow. Together, we can break down barriers and discover how quantum technologies will transform our society for an actual sustainable growth. Do you want to be part of this revolution?
