Tecnalia, one of Spain’s leading applied research and innovation centers, has announced the expansion of its Quantum Sensing Laboratory, marking an important step forward in the development of next-generation measurement technologies.
Quantum sensing uses the principles of quantum physics to measure physical phenomena such as magnetic fields, temperature, and pressure with unprecedented precision. Tecnalia’s lab focuses on designing and building quantum sensors that significantly outperform traditional devices, opening new possibilities for both research and industry.
The expansion is supported by QUBIZ.team, a deep-tech company specializing in quantum sensing and measurement solutions. This collaboration aims to accelerate research and bring quantum sensing technologies closer to real-world applications by combining scientific expertise with industrial know-how.
Quantum sensing already shows strong potential across multiple sectors. Its applications include detecting micro-defects in manufacturing, improving medical imaging and diagnostics, enabling ultra-sensitive environmental monitoring, and advancing scientific research and materials development.
This initiative highlights how partnerships between research institutions and innovative technology companies can help translate frontier science into practical solutions. As investment and collaboration in quantum technologies grow, quantum sensing is rapidly moving from the lab into the real world.
