Welcome to Munich Quantum Valley

On 22 October, the Bavarian State Ministry of Science and the Arts (StMWK), together with Munich Quantum Valley (MQV), the Heisenberg Society, and the Munich Center for Quantum Science and Technology (MCQST), hosted the Bavarian Quantum Day under the motto “100 Years of Quantum – from theory to transformation.” The day's program concluded with a state reception at the Residenz.

Munich Quantum Valley (MQV) and the International Max-Planck Research School for Quantum Science and Technology (IMPRS-QST) invite exceptional young researchers to apply for their prestigious 3-year doctoral fellowships in quantum science. Applications are open now until 15 January 2026.

From 10 to 12 October 2025, the science fair FORSCHA took place at the shopping center "Forum Schwanthalerhöhe" in Munich. Munich Quantum Valley participated once again in the interactive fair that invites people of all ages to experience knowledge firsthand.

As part of the event series “MQV-Einblicke – 100 Jahre Quantenwissenschaften und woran wir heute forschen”, the Walther Meißner Institute of the Bavarian Academy of Sciences and Humantities opened its doors on 6 October 2025, giving the many visitors insights into research on quantum systems at the lowest temperatures.

In the anniversary year of quantum mechanics, the Nobel Prize in Physics goes to three physicists for their research in the field of quantum mechanics, which also laid the foundation for current research at MQV.

With more participants than ever before, the Munich Quantum Valley (MQV) Annual Meeting took place from 30 September to 2 October. For the fourth time, the MQV community gathered in Eichstätt to discuss the progress made over the past year and the challenges ahead.

Last week, the second DPG Fall Meeting took place at Georg August University in Göttingen under the motto “100 Years of Quantum Physics.” Munich Quantum Valley (MQV) was represented with a booth at the industry and book exhibition.
