Call 2025 Announcement (4 September 2025)
The QuantERA III Consortium announces a new Call for international research projects in Quantum Technologies – QuantERA Call 2025.
Through this Call, the QuantERA Consortium seeks to boost cross-border collaboration and accelerate breakthrough research and cutting-edge engineering in quantum technologies, with funding from QuantERA partners and contribution from the European Commission.
Funding: ca. €53M
Deadline for proposals submission: 5 December 2025, 17.00 CET
Application and evaluation procedure
The Call follows a one-stage submission and evaluation procedure.
The Project Coordinator (PC) prepares a joint proposal for the whole project consortium, using the templates available on the QuantERA website. The two forms (proposal form and financial form) composing the proposal are submitted via the Electronic Submission System (ESS).
Researchers are invited to apply for funding in one of two topics:
- Quantum Phenomena and Resources (QPR) – with the goal of laying the foundations for the QT of the future;
- Applied Quantum Science (AQS) – aimed at leveraging established quantum effects and concepts from quantum science, translating them into technological applications and developing new products.
All projects aligned with one of the two Call 2025 topics are expected to address one or more of the following areas:
- Quantum communication
- Quantum computing
- Quantum simulation
- Quantum sensing and metrology
- General quantum science
Countries participating in the Call:
Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czechia, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Hungary, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, South Korea, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Türkiye, United Kingdom.
Project duration
Projects may be performed over 24 or 36 months.
Partner Search Tool
In order to facilitate the process of forming research consortia, we offer applicants a Partner Search Tool available HERE. This tool can be used by projects looking for partners and partners looking for projects.
Webinar
An online webinar, hosted by the QuantERA Coordinator and the Call Secretariat, took place on 8 October 2025. Presentations are available on the Call 2025 webpage in the panel “Materials from the webinar for applicants”.
