On 2 December, the QUANTIFY Consortium held its sixth Plenary Meeting via teleconference. The partners met to share the achievements and results of the past months and, in particular, to discuss the implementation of the consortium’s mitigation strategy measures to ensure the project continues smoothly and without interruptions. The meeting provided an excellent opportunity to align on progress, reinforce collaboration, and ensure that the project remains firmly on track. Thank you to all participants for their commitment and constructive contributions. Wishing everyone a wonderful holiday season!

On June 10–11, 2025, the partners of the EU-funded QUANTIFY project gathered at ICFO for the project’s Annual Meeting. The event brought together researchers and innovators to share progress on cutting-edge goals that are shaping the future of quantum technologies.

Key technical discussions focused on the development of miniaturized photonic integrated circuit (PIC) lasers, advanced squeezed light sources, and the novel micro-transfer printing (uTP) techniques enabling hybrid quantum systems. These milestones demonstrate a significant step forward in integrating high-performance quantum devices on scalable platforms.

In parallel, the consortium made substantial progress in pave the way to define protocols for the metrological assessment of these quantum components, which is crucial for their reliable and standardized use across applications.

The meeting underscored not only the scientific and technological achievements but also the broader societal impact of the QUANTIFY project. The breakthroughs being realized are paving the way for compact, scalable quantum devices with real-world applications, confirming the project’s strong potential to contribute to Europe’s leadership in the quantum domain.

On Tuesday and Wednesday, June 10 and 11, the QUANTIFY Consortium will meet at the beautiful location of ICFO – The Institute of Photonic Sciences in Castelldefels (Barcelona, Spain), for the Annual Meeting in person! More exiting news will be shared during the meeting! Stay with us!

On Sunday, May 25, the QUANTIFY project was featured during INRiM’s Open Day, titled “Domenica in Scienza” — a public science event dedicated to sharing research with the wider community.

The involved INRiM researchers had the opportunity to present the goals and ambitions of QUANTIFY to a broad audience, highlighting its role in the European quantum technologies landscape and its potential to drive innovation and technological transfer.

The event was also an opportunity to explain how a European-funded research project comes to life — from the initial concept and proposal submission to project management and coordination among international partners.

At QUANTIFY, we believe that open dialogue with citizens is a key part of our mission. Making science accessible and fostering a shared culture of innovation is essential to building a future shaped by knowledge and collaboration.

On February 3–4th, the QUANTIFY project became protagonist within the “Quantum Applications in Integrated Photonics”workshop held in Ljubljana, organized by ePIXfab in collaboration with three other EU-funded integrated photonics projects (CLUSEC, uTP4Q, and ELENA). The QUANTIFY Coordinator opened the workshop by presenting the overarching objectives and progress of the QUANTIFY project.

The workshop ended with a Panel Discussion, in which the Coordinator partecipated alongside Peter Lodhal (Chief Quantum Officer at Sparrow Quantum), Lars Hohmuht (from QuiX QUANTUM), and Jørgen Ellegaard Andersen (Director of Centre for Quantum Mathematics). The goal was to summarise the key insights from the two-day event and discuss the commercial and application-focused developments of quantum technologies in photonics.

This workshop offered an excellent opportunity to meet colleagues from the QUANTIFY Consortium, discuss our ongoing work in person and broadened our network, especially with companies and research entities engaged in III-V active component fabrication.

On December 17th, the QUANTIFY Consortium held its fourth Plenary Meeting via teleconference. In addition to reviewing progress and challenges from the first twelve months, participants presented the first major technological hurdles and proposed strategies to overcome them, ensuring the project remains on track to meet its objectives. The meeting was a great success, strengthening connections among partners and providing valuable updates on the project’s developments. Thank you to everyone for their dedication and insightful contributions. Wishing you all a wonderful holiday season!

On June 5th, the Quantify Consortium successfully convened via teleconference to share and discuss the progress and challenges of the first five months. The meeting was a great success, fostering strong connections and providing valuable updates on the project’s developments. Thank you to all participants for their dedication and insightful contributions. We look forward to continuing this collaborative journey together!

On June 5th, the Quantify Consortium will meet via teleconference to share the activities and challenges of the first five months of work. It will be an excellent opportunity to strengthen our network of relationships and update each other on the project’s developments.

On April 17th, the QUANTIFY project was presented by its Coordinator during the Technical Committee of Time and Frequency (TC-TF) at the Observatoire de Paris, LNE-SYRTE. The Technical Committees are EURAMET’s forum for scientific and technical cooperation in the respective fields. EURAMET brings together institutes in Europe that maintain national measurement standards. 

It was an excellent opportunity to present our ambitious project to an audience particularly relevant to our community.
