IQST at Quantum Effects 2025: Showcas­ing Quantum Innov­a­tion and Collaboration

The IQST team success­fully took part in Quantum Effects 2025 in Stutt­gart, present­ing a broad spectrum of quantum research and techno­logy integ­ra­tion from its partner insti­tu­tions. At the IQST booth, research­ers and gradu­ate students engaged with visit­ors, demon­strat­ing hands-on setups and sharing insights into ongoing projects in quantum sensing, quantum comput­ing, quantum networks, and quantum techno­logy integ­ra­tion.

A special highlight was the present­a­tion delivered by Jan Pusskeiler and Dennis Rieger, showcas­ing a collab­or­at­ive project between the IQST Gradu­ate School @QuantumBW and Qinu, an industry partner based in Karls­ruhe. Their demon­stra­tion attrac­ted great interest from visit­ors and exempli­fied the strong link between academic research and indus­trial innov­a­tion fostered within IQST. 

In addition, the booth was visited by the Region­alräte, who had time to learn how IQST advances the quantum ecosys­tem of Baden-Württemberg both locally and internationally. 

The booth also featured a social area, where visit­ors and parti­cipants could meet over an espresso, exchange ideas, and connect with members of the quantum community. All students of the newly estab­lished IQST Gradu­ate School @QuantumBW actively contrib­uted to the booth, present­ing their research and engaging with the public through­out the event. 

Through­out the two days, IQST members fostered exchange across discip­lines and insti­tu­tions, strength­en­ing connec­tions within the quantum ecosys­tem and raising visib­il­ity for the vibrant research community in Baden-Württemberg. 

A warm thank-you goes to all contrib­ut­ors — research­ers, students, and staff — and to the visit­ors who took the time to engage with our team and explore the excit­ing work being done at IQST.
