Innovation Center Ulm
A uniquely diverse ecosystem for quantum computing
There are many ways to implement qubits technically – and it is not yet clear which approach, or rather which approaches, will prevail. At our Innovation Centre in Ulm, we are therefore focusing on technological diversity in the development of hardware and enabling technologies, and on fostering a rich ecosystem for application development.
With just under 3,000 square metres of laboratories, workshops and offices, we support quantum start-ups on their path to becoming scale-ups and provide state-of-the-art, high-performance infrastructure for internationally competitive, independent quantum computing.
