In April 2024, the Inside Quantum Technology conference in The Hague is set to welcome Antti Kemppinen, a Senior Scientist at VTT, as a speaker. With over two decades of experience at VTT, a leading research institute in Finland, Kemppinen brings a wealth of knowledge and expertise to the conference, particularly in optical measurements, material engineering, printable electronics, and optics.
Kemppinen’s journey in science and technology began at the University of Oulu, where he obtained his Master’s degree in Electrical and Electronics Engineering. His education laid a strong foundation for his subsequent research career, marked by versatility and innovation.
His tenure at VTT, starting in June 1997, has seen him take on various roles, highlighting his adaptability and depth of knowledge. From his initial work as a Research Scientist in optical measurements to his involvement in material engineering, Kemppinen has continuously expanded his skill set. His leadership abilities were showcased as a Team Leader in module electronics and later as a Senior Research Scientist and Team Leader in printable electronics and optics.
In his current role as a Senior Scientist and Solution Sales Lead at VTT since February 2010, Kemppinen has been at the forefront of developing and commercializing innovative solutions. His work in this position likely involves interfacing between cutting-edge scientific research and practical applications, making him an invaluable asset in translating scientific discoveries into market-ready technologies.
At the 2024 Inside Quantum Technology conference, Kemppinen is expected to share insights from his extensive experience in various technology sectors. Given his background with VTT, his presentation might cover various topics, from the latest advancements in optical measurements and material engineering to the potential applications of printable electronics in quantum technology.
Kemppinen’s perspective on integrating traditional engineering principles with emerging quantum technologies will particularly intrigue attendees. His expertise in bridging the gap between research and practical applications is essential in an era where quantum technology is moving rapidly from theoretical exploration to real-world implementation.
As the conference draws closer, the quantum technology community looks forward to gaining valuable insights from Kemppinen. His unique blend of experience in research and application, coupled with his leadership in various technology domains including at VTT, positions him as a noteworthy speaker who can offer a comprehensive view of quantum technology’s current state and future possibilities.
IQT The Hague 2024 is the Netherlands’ fifth global conference and exhibition. The Hague is a Quantum Technology Event focusing on Quantum Networking and Quantum Security. Ten vertical topics encompassing more than 40-panel talks from over 100 speakers will provide attendees with a deep understanding of state-of-the-art developments of the future quantum internet and the current impact of quantum-safe technologies on cybersecurity and quantum computers.
The conference brings together corporate management, entrepreneurs, end users, technology providers, infrastructure partners, researchers, and investors working on current developments. IQT The Hague is organized by 3DR Holdings, IQT Research, QuTech, QIA (Quantum Internet Alliance), and Quantum Delta, who will bring leading organizations and professionals together in this important event. The April conference is “in-person” to ensure maximum networking and discussion at the Postillion Hotel & Convention Centre in The Hague.
