New at the LASER World of PHOTONICS 2022: the World of QUANTUM!

With the premier of the World of QUANTUM, Messe München explored the most exciting field of the future in photonics: quantum technology and its potential applications in areas including computing and cryptography, sensing and imaging, communications, and medicine.

Quantum technologies are on the verge of breaking out of their ivory tower existence and entering the general marketplace! It is now the right time to present the latest findings by researchers at universities, research associations and quantum clusters, to clear the way for the components and systems needed for this work during a close dialogue with industry and to evaluate the potential applications in different markets and industries with users.

There is no better place to do so than the world’s leading trade fair for photonic components, systems and applications. It is the perfect showcase for all developments and the ideal venue for networking by all stakeholders in quantum technologies. The creme de la creme of the global photonic industry and, thus, the providers of the enabling technologies used in quantum technologies will be represented at LASER World of PHOTONICS.

The exhibition concept of the World of QUANTUM is based on three pillars:

The Tech Alley of the World of QUANTUM will be the heart of this innovative industry of the future. It will bring technology start-ups and scientists together with industry representatives, visitors, experts and investors. It will also serve as the perfect place to make new contacts and significantly move upcoming quantum projects forward.

You will be in the very best company at the World of QUANTUM and among the world-market leaders as well: Photonic market leaders like Toptica and TRUMPF, industry-allied research institutes like the Fraunhofer Institute for Applied Optics and Precision Engineering, alliances and trade associations like the Munich Quantum Valley and SPECTARIS will sponsor the new exhibition area of the LASER World of PHOTONICS along with leading quantum companies – including IBM.

Working with these partners, we will showcase every application area of quantum technologies and will put the entire tool box on display:

• key systems and components for quantum technologies
• quantum computers and simulations
• quantum sensors and imaging
• quantum cryptography and communication
• quantum medicine

There is tangible progress in quantum computing and quantum communication as well. The first supercomputers based on qubits instead of bits are on the threshold of market maturity and promise exponential growth in computing power. This allows even highly complex simulations to be parallelized and attracts great attention from sectors such as financial, logistics, pharmaceutical, chemical, research and automotive. After all, high-performance quantum computers could help them accelerate highly complex innovation processes in the future. These include, for example:

• virtualized matching of active substances for new drugs,
• quantum chemical material simulations for next-generation energy storage systems,
• optimization of logistics processes or high-frequency trading at stock exchanges and
• simulations of complex traffic situations for the development of autonomous vehicles.

Where large amounts of sensitive data are processed, IT security is high on the agenda. And here, too, quantum technology opens up an entire world of new opportunities. The first sections of a quantum internet are being developed in China and the EU. The phenomenon of quantum entanglement – i.e. the inseparable connection between two twin photons – enables a new kind of data transmission that cannot be intercepted or manipulated. Any attempt to hack quantum-encrypted data breaks the quantum entanglement and can be reliably detected. After China, the EU is also currently pushing this technology and is expected to send a first quantum encryption satellite into space in 2022.
