The group of experts was interested in the national quantum technologies roadmap and the panel of experts’ conclusions. As a member of the panel of experts, Prof. Linnhoff-Popien spoke about “Perspectives of Applications,” one of the four aspects of the roadmap that was delivered to Chancellor Angela Merkel in January. Prof. Linnhoff-Popien presented new findings in the field of quantum computing and spoke about LMU’s QAR-Lab and its application-oriented approach.
