2nd Scientific Day – October 2026

We are pleased to announce the 2nd QuanTech@Paris Scientific Day, which will take place at the Laboratoire Matériaux et Phénomènes Quantiques (MPQ). The event includes laboratory tours in the morning (LIME (Optomechanics), QITE (Photonics), QITE (Trapped ions) and SQUAP (Quantum materials) groups), followed by a series of scientific seminars in the afternoon.

The goal of this event is to strengthen scientific connections among the members of QuanTech@Paris, but all interested participants are warmly invited to attend the presentations.

1st General Assembly and Conference – 2025

We are pleased to announce the launch conference of the Quantum Technologies at Paris Cité and Sorbonne Paris Nord (QuanTech@Paris) consortium, carried out by the “inIdEx” initiative of the IdEx of Paris Cité University for the period 2025-2030.

This morning will be organized in three stages:

Presentation of the consortium teams (1h30)
Invited presentations (1h)
General Assembly (1h)

Thank you for reserving the slot in your agenda and coming in large numbers in order to get to know each other better, discover possible collaborations, and participate in the implementation of actions that will be financed by the consortium.

In short

Date: April 9, 2025, 9am-1pm
Location: Capus Grands Moulins – University of Paris Cité, Sophie Germain building, Turing Amphitheater
Language: By default French, especially for the general assembly, but talks could be in English
