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
| 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 1,498,725 (EU contribution (maximum grant agreed)). Total cost EUR 1,498,725; 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 | No other funder is stated in the sources used. | None |
| Payments | Not available: the sources used publish no payments. | None |
Beneficiaries
| Organisation | Country | Role | Share of the award |
|---|---|---|---|
| Technische Universiteit Delft | Netherlands | participant | Not in the snapshot this page reads |
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.

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.
