QIP IRC/QAP EC Summer School


The QIP IRC/QAP EC Summer School was held from 20th to 25th August in Gregynog, Wales.

The School was a collaboration between QIP IRC and QAP (an EU project on recent developments in small-scale applications of QIP). We trust that the European dimension of the Summer School enhanced the study and discussion that took place.

The Summer School was held at Gregynog in Wales. The Hall is surrounded by 750 acres of gardens, woodland and farmland, making Gregynog a peaceful and relaxing venue for thinking about quantum information.
