📋 Tender Overview
With the new call to quantum technologies, the country strengthens the high-tech location of Baden-Wurttemberg. The aim is to implement and test prototypes in small and flexibly operating project teams. Before all other quantum technologies, quantum sensors have the potential to achieve market maturity in the next few years - followed by key components for quantum communication. On the way there, challenges must be mastered that stretch the sheet of basic research to engineering and intelligent data processing. For this, it is essential to bring the most promising prototypes from laboratory and research environments into the most relevant markets. In order to achieve this goal, the Ministry of Economic Affairs, Work and Tourism and the Ministry of Science, Research and Art put on a joint with a volume of three million euros. You dont have to be a nerd to recognize the potential of quantum technologies. With the new funding program as part of ours, we are implementing an important component of the Baden -Wurttemberg quantum strategy. It strengthens the close cooperation between science and, promising quantum technologies from quantum sensorism and metrology, for example, in order, for example, to be measurements in medicine or navigation Improve, says Science Minister as part of the publication of the tender. Quantity technologies are among the key technologies of tomorrow. Anyone who opens up to them at an early stage can shape new markets and secure long-term value creation. For Baden-Wurttemberg as a high-tech location, this is a great opportunity: We are targeting impulses so that economic excellence also creates economic leaders Quantum technology demonstrators . Research and development goes hand in the way of the support calls that are jointly carried out by the Ministry of Economy, Work and Tourism and the Ministry of Science, Research and Art, it is to realize new, previously non-existent feasibility concepts, prototypes and quantum technology demonstrators in small and flexible project teams or already existing prototypes together To test users in a new, relevant environment. Afterwards, the transfer booster projects with regard to their application and market potential as well as other criteria for technical development and implementation are evaluated. A special feature of this tender is that the transfer booster projects must include at least one academic partner on the research/development page (developer) and one on the user (user). Companies can be integrated either as an associated partner or as a subcontractor. This type of projects are intended to show what is currently possible in the quantum technology area and are determined together with users which applications, products and markets can be suitable for (proof-of-concepts or prototypes) in order to create added value. A total of three million euros will be made available by the two ministries for this call for funding. Funding of up to 500,000 euros is possible per transfer booster project. The application deadline for this tender runs until October 15, 2025. Cooperation projects are to follow on transfer booster The first phase of the program line Application demonstrators as part of Quantumbw. Subject to the availability of corresponding budget, larger cooperation projects with a term of up to 24 months should be advertised in a second phase-based on the transfer booster projects in the first phase-that continues the research, development and validation of the prototypes in the direction of market ripe. Innovation Campus Quantumbw with the support of the Ministry of Economics, Labor and Tourism Baden-Wurttemberg and the Ministry of Science, Research and Art, global players from the economy with universities and research institutions in April 2023 have come together to form Quantumbw. Quantumbw builds on an existing, strong and successful network of science and business, in which the partners cooperate in many ways. In Quantumbw, the country bundles these skills and creates a comprehensive umbrella brand that further strengthens these networks and makes it more visible internationally. The strategic objectives and fields of action by Quantumbw are published and summarized in Baden-Wurttembergische.
