Quantum technology has the potential to make a significant impact on society, with many governments launching extensive missions and funding initiatives in the field. The Finnish quantum ecosystem, based on decades of cutting-edge research in low temperatures, is among the most recognized and leading internationally, producing a wealth of academic and industry leaders in superconducting quantum technologies. This presents numerous opportunities for collaboration with Indian academia, companies, and start-ups. In this talk, we will explore the potential for partnership between Finland and India in the exciting field of quantum technology and the benefits that can be gained from joint efforts. Attendees will gain insight into the Finnish quantum ecosystem and learn how Indian organizations can collaborate to drive innovation and advance the field.
