THE University of Luxembourg's Interdisciplinary Centre for Security, Reliability and Trust (SnT), in collaboration with the Department of Media, Connectivity and Digital Policy (SMC) of the Ministry of State, recently announced the development of the Luxembourg Quantum Communication Infrastructure Laboratory (Luqcia).

The five-year project is funded by the European Union's Recovery and Resilience Facility in the context of the NextGenerationEU initiative, and will aim to build a national testbed in 2023 to enable advanced and applied research in quantum key distribution and quantum internet — a vital stage in the next generation of computing and internet usage.
