On March 9, we will organise a QSC/QDNL symposium for Action Line 3 at CWI in Amsterdam. AL3 deals with talent and human capital, while AL3.6 focuses on quantum technology for young people up to the age of 18. Amsterdam and Leiden will present the Quantum Bloch Sphere. All nodes will present a quantum demonstration of what they have developed in their Quantum Labs in Delft, Eindhoven, Leiden, Twente, Amsterdam (DELTA) and Utrecht.
