About

TNO (Nederlandse Organisatie voor Toegepast Natuurwetenschappelijk Onderzoek) is the Netherlands' principal applied research organisation and a key partner in the Dutch quantum technology ecosystem. It is a founding partner of QuTech, the joint quantum technology research institute of TU Delft and TNO, which is the Netherlands' primary quantum computing and quantum internet research centre. Through QuTech, TNO contributes to superconducting qubit development, quantum networking protocols, and quantum internet architecture. Its independent quantum research covers quantum sensing for industrial and defence applications, quantum-safe cryptography, quantum radar, and quantum-enhanced imaging. TNO is a consortium member of the Quantum Internet Alliance (QIA), the EU Quantum Flagship project building a Europe-wide quantum internet, and it participates in the Quantum Delta NL national programme. TNO's applied focus moves quantum technology from laboratory to industry through technology transfer, standardisation, and market development. The organisation works with Dutch industry partners in sectors including defence, semiconductor manufacturing (ASML), and security. TNO hosts the Dutch national roadmap for quantum sensing and serves as the primary interface between QuTech's fundamental research and commercial quantum technology deployment in the Netherlands.
