Join us at the Quantum Talents Symposium in Munich
The symposium is designed to bring together outstanding PhD students and early-career postdocs from all over the world to present their groundbreaking research work in the field of quantum science and technology.
Our mission: to provide a platform for emerging young researchers, facilitate knowledge sharing, inspire collaboration, and promote career opportunities in quantum science.
Special attention will be given to increasing diversity in the field of quantum science, fostering a more inclusive and equitable environment that values the contributions of researchers from all backgrounds.
