This afternoon, we'll hear about how our Danish neighbours work on this topic, and how good collaboration with Denmark and other near allies on development and use of this technology can be achieved.
What is happening in Norway and what within quantum technology should we be working on moving forward? How can quantum technology enable us to compete internationally?
