Governance

The diverse activ­i­ties on quantum technolo­gies in Baden-Württemberg are bundled and benefi­cially combined in QuantumBW.

The central struc­ture and working fields of QuantumBW are as follows:

Speakers QuantumBW

QuantumBW is repre­sented by two speakers:

Academic Speaker

Prof. Joachim Ankerhold, Director of the Institute for Complex Quantum Systems, Ulm University

“Start­ing from a research landscape in quantum sciences which is already unique in inter­na­tional compar­i­son, with QuantumBW we want to take the final leap into the technol­ogy of the future, initially for quantum sensing, but then also for quantum comput­ing. The prospect of using quantum mechan­i­cal proper­ties of defects in diamonds, for example, to detect minute magnetic fields with unprece­dented spatial resolu­tion opens up unimag­ined perspec­tives for medical diagnos­tics. Even if quantum comput­ing still needs signif­i­cantly more funda­men­tal devel­op­ment work, it has the poten­tial to revolu­tion­ize materi­als research or logis­tics, for example.”

Prof. Dr. Joachim Ankerhold, Direktor des Instituts für Komplexe Quantensysteme, Universität Ulm

Industry Speaker

Dr. Volkmar Denner, Scientific Advisor Quantum Technology of the Bosch Group

“The QuantumBW innova­tion initia­tive brings together basic and applied research with indus­trial devel­op­ers and users. The players of future quantum technolo­gies can exchange ideas inten­sively and jointly build a power­ful quantum ecosys­tem. Quantum technolo­gies have great disrup­tive poten­tial, but require high upfront invest­ments and great endurance. For example, quantum sensors will make it possi­ble to measure signals many times smaller than with conven­tional sensors. This could lead to completely new appli­ca­tions, for example in medical technol­ogy. A long-term vision is to be able to control devices with our thoughts.”
