project Overview

Saxion

Quantum Photonic lab

A unique opportunity for teachers to become interns, dedicating one day per week to immersing themselves in the operation of a quantum-related company. This experience will enable them to understand better the expectations for their students and the skillsets required to work at such a company. Simultaneously, companies will establish stronger connections with educational programs and potential future employees, all while benefiting from free expertise.
