Bulgarian National Plan Kick off Meeting in Sofia
Bulgarian National Plan Kick off Meeting in Sofia
Uniting our best researchers at the national coordinator Centre of Competence QUASAR and some of the largest communication industrial partners in the country, we combine the top level expertise in both quantum technologies and innovative communication infrastructure.
Having great cooperations with Bulgarian ministries, municipalities and agencies, BG QCI is our national plan to ensure Bulgaria is quantum-secure and a step ahead in the upcoming quantum revolution through being inseparable part and active contributor to the European Union’s EuroQCI initiative.
Our consortium brings together an ecosystem of quantum communication scientists, communication integrators and operators as well as end-users. This ensures the plan can effectively validate the technologies across national infrastructure and complete the activities to demonstrate the real operation of QKD secured communication networks locally and internationally.

About The Bulgarian National Quantum Communication Infrastructure (BG QCI) Plan
- BG QCI is the national consortium selected to deploy the first ever quantum secure communication links and networks in Bulgaria. It is our national plan part of the European Union wide initiative for European Quantum Communication Infrastructure (EuroQCI).
- The consortium comprises of the national coordinator Centre of Competence QUASAR, two nationwide integrators – Enterprise Communications Group and Electron Progress EAD as well as various public bodies including The Ministry of Defence, Ministry of Electronic Governance , The Ministry of Interior, The Ministry of Transport, Sofia Municipality and other.
- The plan utilises long standing knowledge in quantum theory and technologies and communication networks expertise to target the adoption of modern encryption technologies based on Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) for highly secure communication among our public authorities and private organisations.
- We are also a testbed to develop new technological approaches in deploying new QKD technologies within various existing infrastructure including different use cases, topographical configurations of networks, long-distance QKD links which require secured trusted nodes (relay stations) and field testing of quantum repeaters.
