Collaborating with world leading industrial partners, consulting on future government policy, engaging with a wide range of media

The Quantum Communications Hub aims to deliver future-proof, practical, secure communications with commercialisation potential, by developing existing prototype quantum secure technologies beyond their current limitations; to thus contribute to the establishment of quantum communications technology industries in the UK; and to feed their future expansion, competitiveness, diversification and sustainability.

The Hub is funded through the UK National Quantum Technologies Programme, a ten-year £1 billion public and private investment underpinned by the UK government. The programme aims to create a coherent government, industry and academic quantum technology community that gives the UK a world-leading position in the emerging multi-billion-pound new quantum technology markets, and to substantially enhance the value of some of the biggest UK-based industries.
