Cisco Quantum Research Award Recipients

Share

Cisco Quantum Lab has started with the mission to develop the underlying technologies for quantum networks and photonic information processing. Quantum technologies are currently at their early stage of development and the progress relies on basic science research in academic labs. As part of our development program, we support academic projects by providing research grants. Broadly, we fund projects in all quantum technology stack layers, hardware, software, and applications. A detailed list can be found on our call for proposals.

We are excited to announce the recipients of the quantum research award in the past year, 11 faculty members from the universities in the US, the UK, and the EU. Partnerships between industry and academic labs are vital to successful commercialization of quantum technologies.
