Follow the money

Follow public quantum funding from a programme to its awards, the organisations that receive them and the outputs that the sources link to each award. Choose a programme, a country, a technology area or a start year, then open an award to see its funding layers, beneficiaries and evidenced outputs.

A grant is not proof of a successful outcome, of operational infrastructure or of a return on investment. Missing outcomes stay unknown: they are shown as not linked in the sources used, never as a failure.

Funding layers

Each layer separately, with its source; no layer is added to another.
Layer	What the source states	Source
Programme envelope or announced budget	No programme envelope is linked to this award by a source. Envelopes are listed separately and never added to awards.	None
Award to the project	EUR 9,999,566.39 (EU contribution (maximum grant agreed)). Total cost EUR 10,435,183.75; it includes the award.	CORDIS
Partner shares of the award	The snapshot this page reads does not keep the share of each organisation; the project page at the source lists them.	None
Co-funding by other funders	The total cost exceeds the award by EUR 435,617.36; the source does not say who pays it.	None
Payments	Not available: the sources used publish no payments.	None

Evidenced outputs

Associated: an explicit identifier links the output to this award, which shows a relation, not that the award produced it. Demonstrated contribution: a reviewed document of the funder or the operator states that the award produced or acquired it.

Outputs linked to this award by an identifier or a reviewed document; names alone are never used.

Each project counts once. A total adds the amount each source states for its projects within one measure and one currency only: EU contributions, national awards and other measures are never added together. Total cost includes the award and is shown separately. A country filter keeps whole projects with a participant in the country, so its total is not the country's share. Programme envelopes, partner shares, co-funding and payments are separate layers and are never added to awards; payments are not published by the sources used. Outputs are linked only through an explicit project or grant identifier or reviewed documentary evidence, never by name alone; only a reviewed document can show a demonstrated contribution. CORDIS and Funding & Tenders amounts are one measure, the EU contribution (maximum grant agreed in the grant agreement, not payments). Country codes EL and UK are read as GR (Greece) and GB (United Kingdom). National and regional rows whose title names no quantum technology are left out unless asked for.
