The Quantum Internet Alliance, bringing together world-leading experts from academia, industry, and research organizations, is pushing the boundaries of quantum network technology by developing the ability to connect quantum devices over long distances, enabling them to share quantum information and entanglement - key building blocks for a general-purpose quantum internet.

As the opening event of Quantum Meets ‘25, QIA Conference Day brings together world-class researchers, industry pioneers, and policymakers to explore the latest advancements in quantum networking.

The conference opens by addressing fundamental questions: Why do we need a quantum internet? What unique capabilities will it unlock? From enhanced medical data privacy, ultra-secure financial transactions to enhancements of network infrastructures, the sessions will showcase the potential practical benefits driving quantum internet development. These discussions set the stage for understanding how quantum communication can address real-world challenges across industries.

Building on this foundation, the event showcases QIA's progress in transforming these promising applications from laboratory concepts to practical implementations. As leaders in developing and integrating scalable end-node solutions and quantum repeater technologies, QIA demonstrates how breakthrough research achievements are being engineered towards prototype systems and protocol development.

Industry-focused sessions bridge the gap between technological potential and business reality. Leaders and researchers explore concrete use cases and implementation strategies, examining how quantum networking can be integrated into existing infrastructure. These discussions focus on practical considerations for early adopters and the development of market-ready solutions.

Throughout the day, the conference reinforces QIA's mission of developing Europe's first quantum internet prototype by 2030, demonstrating how each technological milestone brings us closer to practical, market-ready quantum network solutions. The event offers unique insights into the journey from understanding quantum internet's transformative potential to creating innovative applications that will reshape the future of network technologies.
