Mission

We contribute to place Europe at the forefront of the second quantum revolution, bringing transformative advances to science, industry, and society. Quantum encryption will create new commercial opportunities and provide strategic capabilities for security.

Over the last 30 years, European public funding has contributed heavily to quantum research. This ongoing investment was highly risky. It was not foreseeable whether scientific research results could ever lead to the development of economically applicable technologies.
That changed. We have proved that a commercial application of quantum cryptography is possible and even mandatory.

As a startup, the company aims to exploit the commercial use of published basic cutting-edge scientific results in quantum optics and quantum communications. Our primary focus is on Quantum Key Distribution (QKD). qtlabs team accumulates both academic and essential experience in Research and Development (R&D) projects, many of them involving technology transfer and industrial exploitation of scientific results.

Now is the time to ensure that the added value of scientific knowledge also happens in Europe. Developing Europe’s competence in quantum technologies will create a lucrative knowledge-based industry, leading to long-term economic, scientific, and societal benefits.

qtlabs assists in the development of quantum devices for the mass market, based on reliable systems.
