Each one links to its EU funding record and the partners it works with: a starting list for building a consortium.
This action will support and accelerate the development and adoption of European and international standards for quantum technologies, enhancing interoperability quality/reliability assurance, and trust in quantum systems. It will strengthen Europe's leadership in the global quantum standardisation landscape and ensure that European industrial and research priorities are well represented and integrated into emerging standards.
Expected outcomes include:
The CSA will coordinate and support standardisation activities for quantum technologies in areas such as quantum computing, communication, sensing, and control. Proposals should include:
The proposal must present a clear plan for stakeholder engagement, deliverables, and budget justification, including person-days per task and daily rates. A single proposal is expected. European standardisation organisations (ESOs) are encouraged to lead or be key partners in the consortium.
Without prejudice to the eligibility conditions applicable to beneficiaries and affiliated entities, the action should, where relevant, liaise with stakeholders and standardisation initiatives from like-minded third countries, including in OECD and other international fora, on a non-funded basis, in order to promote EU priorities and ensure alignment of European contributions to global quantum technology standards.
