DELIVERABLE D4.1.2 ORGANIZATION OF THE SECOND QUIE2T
INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE
Work Package 4 of the QUIE2T Coordination Action program was extended and updated in order to facilitate the organization of the second QUIE2T International conference. The objective of the conference was to promote multidisciplinary research and integration of approaches, as well as expansion to new fields and applications. In addition to the scientific program, the conference comprised sessions that were of interest beyond the scientific community, and that continued the tradition of similar activities at earlier QIPC conferences. Adjusted to the vocation of QUIE2T, these activities included an “Industry Session”, a “EU funding
session”, a special session on “Practical Quantum Computing”, the ceremony for the “QIPC Young
Investigator Award” and a special session, open to public, on the dissemination of quantum
information science and technology to a general audience (“Quantum Envoy comes to Florence:
What is ‘Quantum’, really?!”).
Following a decision by the QUIE2T Steering Committee the organization of the Conference was assigned to a new partner, Università di Firenze, which received a separate dedicated budget. For the selection of contributions to the conference an International Program Committee was formed. The members are the following: Immanuel Bloch Vladimír Bužek Tommaso Calarco Wolfgang Ertmer Daniele Esteve Elisabeth Giacobino Serge Haroche Massimo Inguscio Paolo Mataloni Gerhard Rempe Vladan Vuletić Ian Walmsley David Wineland Howard Wiseman Peter Zoller

A web page of the conference is on‐line at http://www.cqstar.eu/QIPC/index.html. c) Ever since the organizer was selected regular follow‐up activities were put in place. The planning and task sharing was refined following constructive criticism offered at the interim review meeting. d) Immediately after the conference, a report was drafted by WP4 on the events and highlights of the conference. This draft served the conference organizers as a basis for their final report, which is attached to this document.
