Nächste Woche ist es wieder soweit! Am Donnerstag, den 26. März, findet unsere nächste #MQVEinblicke Veranstaltung statt.

In einem Vortrag mit anschließender Laborführung bei MQV-Partner Menlo Systems bekommt ihr spannende Einblicke in die Entwicklung hochpräziser Laser und erfahrt, welche Schlüsselrolle sie für Ionen- und Neutralatom-Quantencomputer spielen.

Schnappt euch einen der letzten Plätze! Zur Anmeldung geht es hier: https://indico.munich-quantum-valley.de/event/1081/

From today through Thursday, you’ll find us at the Spring Meeting of the Condensed Matter Section (SKM) of the German Physical Society @DPGPhysik in Dresden.

Stop by booth 71 in tent A to learn about the Bavarian quantum computing ecosystem and how you can become part of it. We look forward to sharing insights and answering all your questions!

Today until Thursday you can find us at the Spring Meeting of the Atomic, Molecular, Quantum Optics and Photonics Section (SAMOP) of the Deutsche Physikalische Gesellschaft in Mainz.

Come by booth A10 for a chat about the Bavarian quantum computing ecosystem and how you can become a part of it (and, of course, for some nice merch!). We are happy to talk to you and answer all your questions.

In his research at Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München, @philippaltmann investigates how quantum computing and classical machine learning can benefit from each other, interlock and function as a single system in the spirit of collective intelligence.

Read more about the computer scientist and his motivation for interdisciplinary research in our latest #MQVinPersona portrait.

MQV-Girls'Day 2026: Die Welt der Quantenmaterialien entdecken 👉 Anmeldung läuft!

👩‍🔬 Auch dieses Jahr nimmt das MQV wieder am Girls'Day am 23. April teil und gibt gemeinsam mit dem Zentrum für Nanotechnologie und Nanomaterialien Mädchen die Gelegenheit, Berufe in den Naturwissenschaften kennenzulernen. Diesmal lernen sie dabei, wie die dünnsten Materialien der Welt hergestellt werden und welche Rolle die Quantenphysik bei der Entwicklung neuer Materialien spielt.

🌍 Software from Munich is having a global impact.

Developed at the TU Munich and, together with the MQV start-up MQSC, expanded into a modular, scalable toolbox for the development and optimization of quantum programs, the Munich Quantum Toolkit (MQT) is a great example for successful transfer work in the MQV ecosystem.

👉 Now, MQT has been integrated into the PennyLane software framework and the Catalyst compiler from the Canadian company Xanadu.

Following the highly successful quantum year 2025, the "MQV-Einblicke" event series entered its next round last week with the kick-off at TH Nürnberg – from now on with the adapted subtitle “Quantenwissenschaften vor Ort erleben” (Experience quantum science up close).

And that is exactly what interested visitors were invited to do again this time: Listening to exciting lectures and visiting various laboratories.

Today is the International Day of Women and Girls in Science 👩‍🔬

Women continue to be underrepresented at all levels of STEM disciplines. This issue is particularly acute in quantum computing: According to the UN, fewer than 2% of applicants for jobs in the quantum sector are women.

It is important to us to recognize this gender gap and take action:

👉Dedicated ‘Fellowship for Women’

👉 Girls'Day activities

👉 Inspiring stories from women in our ecosystem: https://www.munich-quantum-valley.de/about-us/mqv-in-persona

For Adelina Bärligea, quantum computing is the perfect intersection of her favorite subjects – maths, computer science, and physics. The MQV doctoral fellow is pursuing her doctorate in quantum algorithms at Uni Augsburg, following one central question: Are there quantum algorithms that really benefit us?
