The South Holland Ecosystem

In Delft, the hub has been born from the TU Delft and QuTech (mission-driven research institute collaboration with TNO), but there are now more people working for spin out companies than there are working on quantum in the university. Leiden University is at the heart of the Leiden hub, which also has a blossoming spin out community. Collaboration between the two hubs is actively growing and goes beyond just these two universities. For example the Delft-Leiden Talent and Learning center for quantum is being led by the Haagse Hogeschool and Leiden Instrumentmakers School (LIS). With many of the same regional stakeholders, Innovation Quarter is helping to spread quantum technologies across the province through collaborations between entrepreneurs, knowledge institutions and industry to realise new business opportunities, as well as attract foreign companies to South Holland.
