Quantum Computing
What is quantum computing and simulation?
What if we could build devices to help researchers, entrepreneurs, and policymakers solve problems that our current computers or supercomputers would need decades – or even centuries – to answer?
Quantum computing uses the principles of quantum mechanics to potentially solve complex problems beyond the reach of today's most powerful conventional computers.
Quantum computers can eventually help scientists better model climate change, create new drugs and medical treatments, and solve complex logistical problems to speed deliveries and save fuel. Quantum simulators help scientists study quantum systems and solve specific quantum physics problems that are difficult to solve with classical computing.
The Netherlands' role in quantum computing innovation
The Netherlands is internationally recognised as a leader in quantum research and innovation. At QDNL, we support a strong Dutch quantum computing ecosystem through research programmes, funding for technology development and infrastructure, entrepreneurship support, and international collaboration.
Our community of researchers and professionals is dedicated to turning quantum computing potential into real-world solutions. Through our Quantum Inspire programme, the quantum community and quantum-interested industries can use our quantum computers and quantum simulators to explore solutions to society's biggest challenges and reveal truths hidden in science’s deepest mysteries.
