On Friday June 23, Leiden will host the 9th Quantum Software Consortium General Assembly, organized by Wolfgang Löffler (LION, Leiden), Lisa Kohl (CWI, Amsterdam) and Doutzen Abma (QuSoft/CWI, Amsterdam). You may expect exciting presentations from fundamental mathematics to experimental quantum optics.

More information, including the final programme and links for registration, can be found on the Quantum SC website.

Quantum Software Consortium (QSC) is a Gravitation Project of QuSoft (University of Amsterdam, Centrum Wiskunde & Informatica), Leiden University and QuTech (Delft University of Technology, Netherlands Organization for Applied Scientific Research). Developing new quantum software, by exploiting the counterintuitive effects of quantum mechanics, requires a unison of ideas from computer science, mathematics, and quantum physics. Large-scale efforts in the Netherlands and around the world are in progress to develop quantum technologies, as a full-blown quantum computer and large-scale quantum internet will have unprecedented computational and communication abilities. In order to achieve this move forward, forces must be combined. Therefore QSC is building a new research community in the Netherlands in Quantum Information Science.
