QIA Technology Forum Networking Lunch and Relaunch

How do metropolitan quantum networks on the ground connect with future space-based links to form a true quantum internet? What does it take to integrate quantum networking technologies into existing telecom infrastructure? And where does your organisation fit in this system? Join QIA Quantum Internet Alliance on this journey to quantum internet to find some answers.

Quantum Internet Alliance Technology Forum (QIATF) is the collaboration platform connecting the QIA with the broader innovation ecosystem: industry, infrastructure providers, hardware developers, application builders, and public actors shaping deployment pathways.

Join this event to discover how QIATF acts as the exchange station between the QIA roadmap and the wider ecosystem. Here you will:

  • get a sharp introduction to QIATF and its Special Interest Groups (Telecom & Space) • hear directly from SIG Chairs about what’s happening now and how you can get involved immediately and free of charge
  • position your organisation within the emerging quantum internet landscape • connect with the right partners through guided networking

The format then shifts into an interactive networking lunch inspired by a quantum internet metro map:

  • each “line” represents a technology or infrastructure segment
  • each “station” represents a quantum internet component
  • each “transfer” represents a collaboration opportunity

You will get your free access ticket on Q-Expo floor!

Whether you are working on metropolitan testbeds, telecom integration, satellite links, hardware, or applications, this event is a practical entry point to engage with the European quantum internet ecosystem.

Do not miss this train! Next stop: QIATF. Final destination: the quantum internet.
