QCI SK-CZ-PL Kick-off meeting
Slovakia Joins the European Quantum Communication Infrastructure
The QCI-AT-CZ-PL and QCI-SK-CZ-PL projects, contributing to the European Quantum Communication Infrastructure (EuroQCI) initiative, will hold their kick-off meetings and a joint technical workshop on 21–22 October 2026 at the Institute of Physics of the Slovak Academy of Sciences, QUTE Pavilion, in Bratislava, Slovakia.
The event will bring project partners together to align objectives, discuss project implementation and milestones, and exchange technical expertise on quantum communication infrastructure. The technical workshop will focus on practical use cases, the integration of Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) with Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC), key management systems, interoperability, and cross-border integration.
The projects contribute to European efforts to develop secure and interoperable quantum communication infrastructure. The European Health and Digital Executive Agency (HaDEA) is involved in the implementation of the relevant EU funding programme.
