The Instituto de Telecomunicações – Aveiro (IT-Aveiro) and CapGemini Engenharia organized, on April 6, 2022, a demonstration of the QDOT project - Quantum Distribution Oblivious Transfer - which consisted of a theoretical part held in the amphitheatre of the IT - Aveiro in which Quantum Technologies to Support Secure Multiparty Computation in Vehicular Networks was discussed by Professor at University of Aveiro/IT-Aveiro, Armando Nolasco Pinto. Other topics covered were Overview of the QDOT project: description and goals, main technologies: QKD and SMC and progress so far, by André Alegria, Preeti Yadav and Bruno Costa, from CapGemini; and DV Quantum Communication System - A Practical System, by Sara Mantey, PhD student at IT-Aveiro. The demonstration also had a practical part composed by the exhibition of a video about quantum raw key generation LAB Demo and laboratory demonstration of Quantum-Enabled SMC Applied to Vehicular Network. here.

Altran organized an internal workshop dedicated to Quantum Technologies, more specifically to the Q.DOT project on 26^st November 2020. The programme of this event includes a presentation of the Quantum area challenges, as well as the components of Secure Multiparty Computation (SMC). In addition, an overview of the Q.DOT project will be made regarding its main information, objectives, structure and conceptual approach. The architecture design and the use case defined within the scope of the project will also be presented. Finally, a first demonstration of the work already done by Altran in the Q.DOT project will be presented.
