Agenda
10:30 – Registration and Networking Coffee
11:00 – Welcome and Introduction: An overview of the day and quantum sensing’s potential
11:15 – Progress and Path Forward – Sensing Updates from the 3 Hubs
This session takes an in-depth look at the progress made by three key national hubs QEPNT, QuSIT, and Q-BIOMED each driving the UK’s quantum sensing and timing agenda in distinct yet complementary ways. Together, they’ll share their latest achievements, highlight ongoing work, and reveal their future plans for translating quantum science into real-world outcomes.
- QEPNT – UK Hub for Quantum-Enabled Position, Navigation & Timing
- QuSIT – UK Quantum Technology Hub in Sensing, Imaging & Timing
- Q-BIOMED – Quantum Biomedical Sensing Research Hub
- Dr. Joe Cotter – Imperial College London
12:00 – Overview of Digital Catapult’s Quantum Sensing programmes and development
