Demonstrating interoperable quantum tech with the best start-ups at @ImpaQT_UA 🚀 | Lecturer @EspolLille & Associate @CEPS_thinktank | [email protected]

[Andrea G. Rodríguez @agarcod]

So it is official! Since April 1st I have been leading @ImpaQT_UA, a consortium of top start-ups from the Delft ecosystem🇳🇱. What makes ImpaQT special and unique is its value-chain approach.

Let me introduce you to it in few, simple words 👇

HITO HISTORICO: Ursula von der Leyen confirma que la EU INC será una realidad en Europa y lo incluye en la agenda legislativa para este año.

La iniciativa denominada “EU-INC” (también vinculada al llamado “28th Regime”) es una propuesta estratégica para crear una forma jurídica societaria paneuropea estándar que permita a las startups y empresas innovadoras constituirse y operar en todos los Estados miembros de la Unión Europea bajo un único marco legal simplificado.

Como abogado en el sector tech, vengo siguiendo y apoyando esta iniciativa a nivel europeo, que por fin toma forma y se acoge por parte de la UE. Un régimen único para las empresas, en Europa, no solo reduce costes, sino que las hace muchísimo más competitivas y por supuesto, convierte eso del "mercado único" en algo más real.

El 28th regime era una demanda desde hacía años. Sus características clave son:

- Se creará “régimen opcional” paneuropeo disponible para empresas que deseen operar en toda la UE bajo un marco común.
- Se tratará de una entidad constituida digitalmente, con procedimientos rápidos y simplificados.
- Se crearán documentos de inversión estandarizados, un registro central a nivel de la UE y potenciales estándares armonizados para aspectos como las opciones sobre acciones para empleados.

Es sin duda una gran noticia pues llevábamos años luchando por poder reducir las cargas administrativas y los lastres jurisdiccionales que esto suponía a nivel corporativo.

Thanks to @QuantERA_EU and @QuantumDeltaNL for the invitation to participate in year’s conference in Amsterdam. I contributed to the panel on how to speed up the commercialisation of quantum technologies and how to make of Europe a “Quantum Valley”.

“The problem is not that Europe lacks ideas or ambition. But innovation is blocked at the next stage: it is not translated into commercialisation, and innovative firms that want to scale up are hindered by inconsistent and restrictive regulation”.

Con el análisis de @sergioprin_her (@unicomplutense), @agarcod (@CEPS_thinktank) y @maurogferrandiz (@talentofuturo_). Claves de cómo se tiene que comportar la UE desde dentro, con la migración como uno de los temas clave, y hacia fuera, sobre todo respecto a Rusia y China.

[Emilio Ordiz @EmilioOrdiz]

🇪🇺 La UE es una máquina de retos, un camino inacabado. Leonard tiene claro que hay que ver Europa no como una maraña de burocracia y reglamentación, sino como un modelo revolucionario, pero… ¿qué tiene que hacer la Unión para ser una potencia mundial? ⤵️

I prosecuted sex predators. Trump is one.
I shut down for-profit scam colleges. He ran one.
I held big banks accountable. He's owned by them.

I'm not just prepared to take on Trump, I'm prepared to beat him.

We hit the stage today in Amsterdam at #NodesOfOneNetwork to speak about how we are contributing to the creation of industry standard and how our vision for the European ecosystem can make of European quantum tech a leader, not a laggard.

[Andrea G. Rodríguez @agarcod]

This week has been all about the #quantum community. At @ImpaQT_UA we believe that cooperation is essential to compete smarter in the quantum market. That’s why we take a value-chain approach to our membership and have put interoperability at the core of our mission.
