It suits you if…
- You work on quantum computers built on superconducting circuits.
- You want to scale up these platforms and put them to practical use.
- You are a company, large, medium or small, or a university or research body.
- Your project can tackle error correction and fault tolerance, plus cryogenic engineering and interconnects.
It is not for you if…
- Your project does not deal with superconducting quantum computing platforms.
- Your project leaves out the mandatory technical barriers named in the call.
- You are neither a company nor a university or research body.
How much you can get
The call has a total budget of €20,000,000, shared among all funded projects. The grant can cover up to 100% of the costs. The call does not state a minimum or maximum grant per project, or whether you must add your own share. Ask the help desk before you build your budget.

Mistakes that cost you the money
- Addressing only some of the mandatory technical barriers. Consequence: The proposal may not meet the call's requirements and may be rejected.
- Proposing work on other quantum technologies instead of superconducting platforms. Consequence: The project falls outside the purpose of the call.
- Starting purchases or works before you apply. Consequence: Those costs may not be accepted.
- Relying on this card instead of the official call. Consequence: You may miss a rule that only the official act contains.
- Assuming the grant covers every cost without checking the budget rules. Consequence: You may find costs that the call does not pay.
