HANNOVER MESSE 2025 Recap

After the world’s largest industrial trade fair HANNOVER MESSE 2025, we can look back on a dynamic week:

In addition to our participation in the joint stand for quantum technology, where we presented exhibits from partners from the future cluster QVLS iLabs, insightful discussions with quantum specialists and key players from Germany and Canada were among the highlights.

We initiated discussions and saw insightful presentations that explored the exciting intersections of the Canadian and German quantum ecosystems. We received insights from a number of professors about their role in their start-ups and examples of commercialization through transfer.

Another key highlight of the fair was the engagement of our policy makers who reaffirmed their commitment to quantum innovation in Lower Saxony.
