CATEGORIES:Call for proposal
DESCRIPTION:This Quantum transitional call aims to provide funding for res
 earchers in Switzerland excluded from quantum topics of the Horizon Europe
  call (“Digital and emerging technologies for competitiveness and fit fo
 r the green deal” part of the Cluster 4). This exclusion is due to Switz
 erland’s status as a non-associated third country in Horizon Europe and 
 due to strengthened principles of technological sovereignty of the EU. The
  federal government has mandated the SNSF to launch this Quantum Transitio
 nal Call funding scheme. The budget available is of CHF 24 Mio. There is a
 n intense activity in the field of quantum sciences at EPFL. This is an un
 missable opportunity for our institution.\n\nCall Topics\n\nI.      
     Quantum software ecosystem for quantum computing platforms\nII.  
        Developing quantum computers\nIII.        Developing q
 uantum simulation platform technologies\nIV.        Quantum communi
 cation\nV.         Quantum sensing technologies based on effects s
 uch as entanglement and superposition\n\nEligibility requirements:\nApplic
 ants to the Quantum Transitional Call must meet the following requirements
 :\n\n	Art. 3 of the call document\n\nIf you wish to submit an application 
 together with one or more other scientists or project partners\, please co
 nsult the following section:\n\n\n	Art. 3.3. of the call document\n\n\nHow
