With an purpose to beforehand India’s indigenous quantum hardware ecosystem and align with the National Quantum Mission, Manipal Academy of Higher Education (MAHE), a deemed-to-be university, formally launched Quantum-Hub@MAHE (Q-Hub) astatine Manipal Institute of Technology (MIT), Bengaluru field connected Thursday.
Conceived arsenic an integrated design-to-deployment platform, Q-Hub brings unneurotic quantum hardware experimentation, deep-tech startup incubation, constituent innovation, workforce development, investigating infrastructure, and translational probe wrong a unified world framework. “The inaugural is structured to fortify India’s sovereign capableness crossed the quantum worth chain,” the connection said.
The institute besides signed Memorandums of Agreement (MoA) with QuantrolOx (Finland) successful relation with Bluefors (Finland), QBLOX (Netherlands), ConScience (Sweden), Centre for Development of Advanced Computing (C-DAC), nether the Ministry of Electronics & Information Technology.
Q-Hub has acceptable a people of grooming 100 quantum engineers by December 2026 done a structured certification programme combining online modules, assessments, and hands-on laboratory immersion. The centre volition besides relation arsenic a nationalist investigating and measurement gateway, enabling researchers, startups, and manufacture partners to entree precocious infrastructure. The carnal installation is scheduled for inauguration successful September 2026.
M. D. Venkatesh, Vice-Chancellor, MAHE, said, “Q-Hub@MAHE reflects our committedness to gathering sovereign technological capableness aligned with the imaginativeness of the National Quantum Mission. By integrating research, hardware development, and workforce grooming wrong 1 ecosystem, we purpose to lend meaningfully to India’s enactment successful precocious quantum technologies.”
