Description
This program from the Research Council of Norway funds the establishment and operation of a National Knowledge Network for Quantum Technology. The initiative aims to foster national and cross-sectoral collaboration among Norwegian research organisations, industry, and public sector stakeholders within the field of quantum technology. The goal is to build a cohesive, forward-looking quantum technology community by supporting activities that encourage competence building, professional development, and networking—both within Norway and with Nordic and international partners. The network is expected to be open and inclusive, providing annual meeting points and actively engaging the entire Norwegian quantum technology sector.
