Quantum Technology - how is research funded? — •Gerd Leuchs — Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light, Erlangen, Germany

Quantum technology is a field in physics which experienced considerable growth recently and is about to generate real world applications with significant economic potential. Scientists and research oriented companies succeeded raising the awareness of politicians in Germany and Europe.
As a consequence, the European Quantum Flagship, which will be supported by national initiatives (in Germany, QUTEGA, a BMBF funded project), is currently in the process of being established. The goal is to provide infrastructural and financial support to projects associated to Quantum Technologies. The major focus is on connecting scientific groups with players from industry who are interested in investing into emerging quantum technologies such as quantum communication, quantum metrology, quantum simulation and quantum computing.
For younger scientists, the structure and the political initiation process of such funding initiatives is often lacking transparency. As the national coordinator of the quantum initiative in Germany, I will try to shed some light on this topic by reporting about the currently ongoing foundation of the Quantum Flagship and the associated national initiatives. Since the final structure of the Flagship is not yet fully established, I will also share my experience with similar projects from the past.
