The program will support full-time research and development (R&D) teams focused on use-inspired scientific breakthroughs and foundational platform technologies that traditional university and industry labs cannot easily address. NSF X-Labs teams will benefit from ambitious R&D goals\, operational autonomy\, milestone-based funding\, and the ability to engage across academia\, industry\, national laboratories\, and nonprofit sectors. NSF X-Labs will bet on ambitious\, full-time teams working with urgency and purpose\, and provide them with the structure\, resources\, and flexibility necessary to cultivate early-stage platform technologies that will accelerate breakthroughs and unlock entirely new sectors of the economy. \nNSF X-Labs in this topic will focus on the research and development of technologies to enable next-generation quantum interconnects\, integrated quantum photonics and/or their supporting technologies. NSF X-Labs teams will target specific platform technologies that\, if successful\, will provide a roadmap for the integration of second-generation quantum systems. NSF Tech Labs in this topic will aim to develop foundational platform solutions that can form the basis for broad industry adoption. \nThe webinar will include a brief presentation followed by time for questions.[/vc_column_text]\n		Register Here\n							[/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/6″][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row]
