Quantum science and technology is becoming one of the defining stories of the decade, yet for most audiences it remains abstract, confusing and overhyped. On the eve of VivaTech, 16 June 2026, UNESCO and France Quantum will host a one-hour hybrid masterclass at Station F in Paris to give journalists the tools they need, dispel common misconceptions and provide fresh angles to bring this fast-moving field to their readers and viewers.
