Marián Janík Wins the ESET Science Award: Supporting Quantum Research in Slovakia Through fellowQUTE
The return of talented scientists from abroad, the advancement of cutting-edge research, and the creation of opportunities for the next generation of researchers. These are all part of the story of Marián Janík, a fellowQUTE researcher who received the ESET Science Award in the Outstanding Scientist Under 35 category. Quantum technologies are opening up new […]
In 2026, European Researchers’ Night in Slovakia celebrated its 20th anniversary. On this special occasion, we continued our long-standing tradition of quantum physics outreach and expanded our collaboration to welcome a new partner: the Faculty of Management Science and Informatics at the University of Žilina (FRI UNIZA).
Once again this year, the Institute of Physics of the Slovak Academy of Sciences participated in the 2026 Summer School for Young Scientists, organized for the eighth time by the All4Science association in cooperation with the Slovak Academy of Sciences with the aim of introducing students aged 12 to 17 to the world of scientific research and motivating them to study science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM).
The event Quantum Entanglements 2026, held on April 14 at Kácečko in Bratislava on the occasion of World Quantum Day, once again offered the public an up-to-date perspective on developments in quantum technologies and quantum computing research. This year’s edition focused on the physical realization of qubits – the fundamental building blocks of quantum computers. The program showcased three distinct approaches […]
The year 2025, declared the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology by UNESCO, was exceptionally intense for the eduQUTE initiative. Alongside our research and educational activities, we continued to build on long-term efforts that we have been systematically developing for years in the field of quantum technology outreach. Throughout the year, we engaged the general public, secondary […]
Kvanta – the Virtual Classroom has had a successful year. Throughout this school year, two semesters were held in which high school students from various parts of Slovakia dove into the world of quantum physics – in a way that goes beyond ordinary school lessons. The program was designed for curious students roughly in the range 12 […]
Anton Zeilinger, a pioneer of quantum communication, became renowned for his research on quantum entanglement, quantum state teleportation, and practical applications of quantum cryptography. His experiments laid the foundation for quantum networks and global quantum-secured communication. Collaborations with Slovak physicists and projects demonstrate how his work inspires the development of quantum technologies in Central Europe.
On September 26, 2025, the V-Klub in Bratislava transformed into a space where science, curiosity, and enthusiasm for quantum technologies came together. To celebrate the International Year of Quantum, we brought a large Quantum Zone to the European Researchers’ Night, where visitors could embark on a journey from the fundamental principles of physics to the most advanced technologies.
From July 14 to 18, 2025, the Institute of Physics of the Slovak Academy of Sciences opened its doors to young scientists aged 12 to 18 as part of the Summer School of the Slovak Academy of Sciences, organised by All4Science, o.z.
On Monday, April 14, 2025, science fans, students, educators, and technology enthusiasts met at the Kácečko Cultural Center in Bratislava for the “Quantum Entanglements” event, which brought an evening full of inspiring lectures, discussions, and a friendly atmosphere on the occasion of World Quantum Day.
