EU projects and funding

32 EU-funded quantum projects in CORDIS name this organisation as a participant (start years 2015 to 2027).

Net EU contribution to this organisation: EUR 26,067,228. The sum of its own net EU contribution in each of these projects, as CORDIS records it per participant.

For context: the whole projects together have an EU maximum contribution of EUR 68,376,472, shared among all their participants.

Related goals of the draft SRIA 2026

26 goals of the draft SRIA 2026 concern these technologies; the first 6 are listed.

  • Milestone by 2030: 100 logical qubits with logical error rates around 10^-6 by 2030, matching the Commission objective of about 100 logical qubits by 2030. draft page 26
  • Goal by 2035: 1000 logical qubits with logical error rates around 10^-6 by 2035; the draft calls this the lower edge of broad utility rather than an end point. draft page 26
  • Milestone by 2030: Trapped ions: universal gates by 2030 and hundreds of logical qubits at an error rate of 1e-5, implemented on a full-stack computer in industry. draft page 30
  • Goal ambition for 2035: Deliver verified quantum advantage through quantum simulation, maturing end-to-end materials-simulation workflows in which fermionic simulators work inside industrial modelling pipelines. draft page 28
  • Milestone mid-term (2027–2030): Beyond-classical performance and beyond-break-even error correction for all relevant platforms; consolidation at or above TRL 5; standardised interface definitions. draft page 42
  • Goal long-term (2030–2035): Quantum utility demonstrated, computers running in production mode and broad industrial uptake, moving from TRL 6 to TRL 8 with large pan-European co-development centres. draft page 42
