Munich Quantum Valley (MQV) aims to create a leading ecosystem for industrializing quantum technologies. It combines research, technology development, graduate training, and educational outreach in quantum science and technology (QST) by establishing a tight network of research institutions, industry, incubators, funding agencies, and the public. By uniting public and private efforts in a shared enterprise, MQV aims to develop and operate competitive quantum computers and achieve breakthroughs in QST that will transform our future. It will accelerate technological disruption by promoting knowledge transfer between science and industry to foster quantum applications and push Bavaria and Germany to the forefront in QST.
MQV will build on the most promising hardware platforms and technologies developed within MQV and by European partners to realize full-stack scalable quantum computers. MQV is organized as a registered association and supported by the Bavarian State Government with funds from the Hightech Agenda Bayern. It combines the research capacities and technology transfer power of three major universities and key research organizations in Bavaria in an unprecedented intensity of cooperation: the Bavarian Academy of Sciences and Humanities (BAdW), the Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft (FhG), the Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU), the German Aerospace Center (DLR), the Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München (LMU), the Max Planck Society (MPG), and the Technical University of Munich (TUM).
Munich Quantum Valley promotes quantum science and quantum technologies throughout Bavaria with the primary goal of developing and operating competitive quantum computers.
Each organization brings unique expertise, collectively enhancing quantum technology education and innovation across these European nations.
