About NATO DIANA Quantum Centre

DIANA Quantum Centre (DIANAQ) is part of NATO’s Defence Innovation Accelerator for the North Atlantic (DIANA) and a member of the transatlantic Accelerator Network as well as the Network of Technology Test Centres.

What we do 

We bring together entrepreneurs, investors, and scientists/technologists in a trusted environment to accelerate the development and commercialization of dual-use quantum technologies for civil and military use and contribute to the growth of a deep tech ecosystem within the Alliance. 

Based on scientific expertise within theoretical modelling, experimental design, test, and research in a variety of technologies and methods we offer new fabrication processes as well as new characterization methods to industry and other researchers and engineers in academia.

Who we are 

DIANAQ is comprised of a quantum accelerator site and four quantum test and fabrication sites located in Denmark.  

The quantum accelerator is operated by Deep Tech Lab, which supports the development of early-stage companies with focus on quantum and quantum-enabling technologies. 

The test and fabrication sites are located at:

• Niels Bohr Institute (NBI) at University of Copenhagen (UCPH)
• Nanolab at The Technical University of Denmark (DTU)
• The Danish National Metrology (DFM)
• LaserLab at Arhus University (AU)

Our Program Manager and Centre Coordinator coordinates and supports DIANAQ's activities and day-to-day operations.
