Two days of lively discussions about creating a QKD Post-Processing stack for the well-known protocol families of CV-QKD, DV-QKD, and EB-QKD. We are very happy to get into the details of the project with our partners: FAU Erlangen-Nürnberg , Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München , Fraunhofer Heinrich Hertz Institute HHI , Fraunhofer IOF , Technische Universität Darmstadt, and VPI Photonics. We will keep you posted on our results in the next 3 years, so stay tuned!

We spent a great day at the European Commission‘s offices attending the EuroQCI (European Quantum Communication Infrastructure) project’s kickoff. All 26 national testbed projects were showcasing their plans for the first round of testbeds. The 5 industrial projects’ representatives presented their ways of improving QKD technology from EU-27. In this group, KEEQuant is coordinating the SEQRET project (stay tuned for more details) and its main goals

* CV-QKD from EU-27
* certifiability of CV-QKD
* scaling CV-QKD through photonic integration

Finally, the overarching PETRUS project showed its scope. Exciting times ahead for quantum cryptography in Europe!

Two days of OPENQKD’s Madrid event are over, what a ride! The European and international QKD elite was united with a very nice representation of the entire value chain. We had numerous chats about KEEQuant’s plans and capabilities, and we are looking forward to the EuroQCI kickoff early next year.

Great to represent Quantum Communications and KEEQuant at such an exclusive event, hosted by La French Tech and the French Embassy at Berlin. Together with the Quantum Technologies team, we formulated key points for national and European politics to foster the field and drive European Sovereignty.

Thank you Johannes Verst and the whole Quantum Business Network (QBN) team for organizing the QBN Meeting on Quantum Communication in Nuremberg yesterday. We at KEEQuant are proud to host the event and showcase our technological capabilities and products.

Gerne haben wir mitgewirkt an der neuen Ausgabe des Magazins “vernetzt” von Bayern Innovativ. Das Interview mit Ulrich Eismann mit Fokus auf unsere Investmentstory gibt es ab Seite 38.

We are pleased to represent KEEQuant at the live talk on Quantum Key Distribution at the Optica Industry Summit. The leading annual event for leaders in Quantum will bring together over 30 world-class industry executives from quantum companies.

A huge thank you to customers and partners for visiting KEEQuant at it-sa 2022! We had plenty of good talks, and it has been a pleasure meeting everyone in person again.

And for all those who could not visit us in Nuremberg… our demo will be back in Fürth tomorrow. ;-)

It was great to see you at Bits & Pretzels in Munich.

We went to ECOC 2022 in Basel and observed how quantum and classical telecom domains move ever closer. Imran gave a talk entitled “Digital Signal Processing for CV-QKD” about the current state of the art, detailling on the major issues and pointing out dominant fields of future research and development.

KEEQuant hosted the DIVQSec – Deutscher Industrieverbund für Quantensicherheit‘s (German Industry Association for Quantum Security) very first on-premise meeting since ist inception. We enjoyed a great day with multiple talks and high quality face-to-face meetings in a relaxed atmosphere. And of course we did not forget to highlight the KEEQuant QKD and KMS products. We are looking forward to the next on-premise meeting!

We were present at the CODE meeting and took a lot of input back home to KEEQuant. A personal highlight was the exciting discussion about the QKD panel with participants from secunet Security Networks AG, Quantum Optics Jena GmbH, Rohde & Schwarz Cybersecurity, BWI GmbH, TÜV Informationstechnik GmbH – TÜViT (TÜV NORD GROUP) and Federal Office for Information Security (BSI).

KEEQuant at www.techdaysmunich.com in Muffathalle Munich. Ulrich Eismann gave a talk in the first session.

Four awesome days at LASER World of PHOTONICS are over. We enjoyed having YOU over at our booth to chat about scalable QKD and key management systems. See you again soon!

One year ago we moved into our home at GS28 in Fürth. Time to celebrate!

We are pretty sure these two electric field quadrature marginal distributions are Heisenberg limited…
