QUEST Project Kicks Off in Montpellier, aiming to further support the breakthrough development of Quantum Reservoir Computing

🎉 On 9th September, the new sister project QUEST, which shares many partners with the QRC-4-ESP initiative, officially launched with a kick-off meeting in Montpellier.

🔬 QUEST's mission is to enhance the scientific and innovative potential of Eötvös Loránd Tudományegyetem (ELTE) alongside its Twinning partners: Linköpings universitet, Loughborough University, Aalto University, JustInMind SL, and Intelligentsia Consultants Sarl. Together, they aim to build a cutting-edge quantum reservoir computing (QRC) system using silicon carbide (SiC) defect qubits. The project, spanning three years, will focus on five key objectives:

1️⃣ Pioneering research to develop a QRC system based on SiC defect qubits.

2️⃣ Promoting knowledge-sharing between ELTE and its partners through exchanges, seminars, and training sessions.

3️⃣ Supporting the career growth of early-stage researchers at ELTE and partner institutions.

4️⃣ Enhancing ELTE’s administrative skills for European R&D projects.

5️⃣ Strengthening the academic and research reputation of ELTE and its Twinning partners.

👩‍🔬👨‍🔬 The kick-off meeting brought together experts from ELTE (Viktor Ivady, Anett Simon-Zock, Gellért Dolecsek, Dóra Szécsényi), Linköpings universitet (Igor Abrikosov, Oscar Balancea), Loughborough University (Alex Zagoskin), Aalto University (Tapio Ala-Nissila), JustInMind SL (Enrique Cano), Intelligentsia Consultants (Giles Brandon), and the University of Montpellier (Patrick Navez, Emmanuel Rousseau).

🔗 We are thrilled to embark on this exciting journey, paving the way for groundbreaking developments in quantum reservoir computing!
