In 2020, the European Quantum Week reached Lithuania for the first time — an initiative launched by the European Commission and the Quantum Technologies Flagship consortium.

The educational sessions engaged a diverse audience: students, corporate representatives, adult learners, and vocational training centers, spanning from Vilnius to Klaipėda. Over 1,400 participants across Lithuania — a participation level achieved exclusively by Lithuania among all participating nations.

This work grew into the Global Quantum Day initiative, launched on April 14, 2022, now involving over 65 countries — including Caltech, Birmingham, and Oxford universities.

Thank you to the Academy, FTMC, EPS Young Minds, and the Lithuanian Physical Society for their support!
