The EuroQCS-Poland project is a joint initiative of Polish and European institutions, owned by the EuroHPC JU and located at the Poznan Supercomputing and Networking Center (PSNC). EuroQCS-Poland will be a digital, gate-based quantum computer, based on trapped-ions offering 20-plus physical qubits, with the infrastructure allowing for remote access. PSNC leads the EuroQCS-Poland consortium, handling the integration and development of hardware and software.

Initiative overview
EuroQCS-Poland is a European initiative to install a quantum computer in Poland, hosted at the Poznan Supercomputing and Networking Center. The system, called PIAST-Q, is based on trapped-ion technology and offers over 20 physical qubits. It is designed to support research and innovation across science, industry, and public sectors, and will be integrated with classical supercomputing infrastructure to enable hybrid computing approaches. The project is part of a broader European effort to advance quantum technologies and is co-funded by the EU and Poland’s Ministry of Digital Affairs.
