StandICT.eu, which unites the ICT standard experts, organises regularly an inspirational webinar - called walk & talk. The next ediation will be on quantum technologies. You'll get as main takeaways: Overview of Standards patterns in the field, Ongoing initiatives & Future Directions.

Quantum Technologies will make it possible to do things that might seem unthinkable today. With quantum, it will be possible to perform sophisticated computational tasks, like modelling biomolecular and chemical reactions, that the most powerful supercomputers cannot currently manage. Quantum will allow us to send sensitive information safely to anywhere, or even diagnose diseases quicker by looking inside cells.

Europe has a long-lasting tradition of excellence in quantum research. This legacy is brought forward with the Quantum Technologies Flagship, a large-scale, long-term research initiative funded by the EU that brings together research institutions, industry and public funders, consolidating and expanding European scientific leadership and excellence in this field.

This webinar will deal with the “State of the Art” in Quantum Technologies Standardisation, discuss European Policy and Strategies for development of adoption of Quantum Technologies within the Digital Single Market, presenting expert contributions from European and International Standards Development Organisations (SDOs).

RUSTICA - Converting organic residues into bio-based fertiliser products

The RUSTICA project obtained funding under Horizon 2020, more in particular under the topic ‘Closing nutrient cycles’.  RUSTICA focuses on demonstration and implementation of circular bio-based nutrient valorisation chains, focusing on waste from the fruit and vegetable agro-food system. The project kicked off in 2021 and will run until 2024. It will use a strong multi-actor approach to co-create both socio-economic and technological knowledge in four case study regions in Europe and one in Colombia. The Flanders-based company DRANCO is one of the project partners and acts as technical project manager for the entire project. DRANCO participates in the project to develop its own technologies, to network and to help make the transition to a more circular based economy.
