Study by Naoris Protocol
A recent global study by Naoris Protocol shows: Most IT directors do not believe their companies are adequately prepared for the threats posed by quantum computing. At the same time, 83 percent consider decentralized systems to be more secure than traditional centralized cybersecurity solutions.
Tap-proof communication
A milestone in quantum research: KIT has put a special fiber optic test track into operation. The 20-kilometer connection between the two campuses enables research into quantum networks and tap-proof communication.
Quantum computing
Pasqal and EDF have successfully used quantum computing for the first time to optimize smart charging systems. The 100-qubit quantum computer enables more precise forecasts for the energy requirements of electric cars.
Tangible benefits from quantum computers
Quantum computers have enormous potential to solve problems that are too complex for conventional computers, such as simulating molecules, optimizing logistics in real time or protein folding. Quantum computers are not yet fundamentally ahead of conventional computers – general quantum superiority is still a dream of the future.
Partnership
From sheet metal forming to crash simulation: BMW Group and Quantum pioneer Pasqal jointly develop applications for the vehicle production of the future.
Juniper Research: Quantum Key Distribution Market: 2025-2030
Quantum Key Distribution is revolutionizing IT security. The technology uses quantum mechanics for tap-proof communication. Juniper Research forecasts a market volume of 7.3 billion dollars by 2030.
Gartner: 2025 Top Strategic Technology Trends
Gartner predicts groundbreaking developments in the areas of AI, computing and human-machine interaction. These technologies are revolutionizing our working world and fundamentally transforming our everyday lives
Mission of the DLR Quantum Computing Initiative
The United Nations has officially declared 2025 the International Year of Quantum Technology. Quantum computers promise groundbreaking progress, particularly in the aviation industry, by making complex planning processes more efficient.
Quantum computing
Google has reached a milestone in quantum computing with its new “Willow” chip. According to Google, this chip can perform an extremely complex calculation in just five minutes.
Willow
Google caused a stir with the recent presentation of its latest quantum computer chip “Willow”. The impressive performance of the chip was less surprising than a hidden message in the blog entry accompanying the announcement: The computing power could be explained by the existence of parallel universes.
