BIGINN ClusterXchange: Quantum Science in Vilnius

BIGINN Partnership invites SMEs, clusters, research centres, and other scale-up organizations to visit Vilnius University and meet leading international experts working on manipulating quantum matter, particularly in the areas of quantum simulation and quantum computation with ultracold atoms, photons, and other platforms. This will arranged under the umbrella of Humbold Kolleg on Synthetic Quantum Matter.

Eligible participants will have the access to the ClusterXchange mobility scheme’s 280 Eur lump-sum to cover travel and other participation expenses.

What you will meet?

The largest Lithuanian scientific institution – Vilnius University, has deservedly earned the status of a leader in science and research. European university traditions, academic freedom and diversity of opinions, the ability to deal with new challenges in the constantly changing world, and social responsibility are the fundamental values of the University. Established in 1579, the University comprises 12 faculties, 7 institutes, 2 university hospitals, 4 interfaculty centres of study and research, the oldest library in Lithuania with a modern Science Communication and Information Centre, the Astronomical Observatory, the Botanical Garden, and the Church of St. Johns.
