Abstract

Professors at the Aeronautics Institute of Technology (ITA) have joined forces to expand their actions in quantum technologies, presenting a proposal to enhance the institution’s research capacity in this field. The goal is to have a greater impact on teaching and research activities, support the development of new business proposals, and contribute to education and the popularization of S&T, as well as to the understanding and use of these technologies by Brazilian society.
