Poggio ai Santi Luxury Boutique Hotel - Where the Tuscan Coast Meets the Mediterranean Light

FLORENCE, Italy, Nov. 29, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Most travellers think they know Tuscany: rolling hills, Renaissance towns, and country roads lined with cypress trees. Very few realise that Tuscany also has one of the most important and beautiful coastlines in Italy, stretching along the Tyrrhenian Sea and opening onto an extraordinary archipelago of seven islands, including the famous Island of Elba. This is the largest protected marine area in Europe, yet still a secret for many visitors. one of the "nest", in the Tuscan bush Poggio ai Santi is part of this coastal world. Set on a hillside above San Vincenzo, it is one of the rare places where the beauty of the Tuscan countryside meets the luminosity of the Mediterranean. From the property, the sea appears like a vast silver horizon, while behind us rise olive groves, Mediterranean macchia, and the gentle rhythm of the coastal hills. It is a landscape where sea air and country scents meet naturally. Even fewer people know that Bolgheri, home to some of Italy's greatest wines—Sassicaia, Ornellaia, Masseto—is only twelve kilometres from Poggio ai Santi. These celebrated wines were born on this very coastline. Their exceptional character comes from a unique combination: the reflection of the sea's light on the vineyards, an exceptional southwest exposure, and soils shaped by ancient marine deposits. This marriage of land and sea allows Bolgheri to produce wines of remarkable elegance and depth. Poggio ai Santi shares this same microclimate. The coast enjoys mild winters, with temperatures similar to southern Sardinia. For our guests, this means that Poggio ai Santi is a refuge of light and tranquillity all year round, offering winter walks, peaceful landscapes, and the calm beauty of the Mediterranean, away from the busy summer months. Our philosophy is simple: authenticity, space, and harmony with nature. Suites open onto private gardens or terraces, the air carries the scent of herbs and sea breeze, and the landscape invites relaxation and contemplation. At our restaurant, Il Sale, many ingredients come directly from the estate or from trusted local producers, expressing the flavours of both coast and countryside. Poggio ai Santi is not only a place to stay—it is an invitation to discover a lesser-known Tuscany: luminous, maritime, agricultural, and deeply authentic. Here, the sea and the hills belong to the same horizon. Suite Mare, rest area Suite mare, sleeping area Swimming pool with sea view

Experts from RAL Space have developed the instrument that will beam SpeQtre's quantum signals to Earth, assembled the satellite hardware and ensured its readiness for space using their suite of environmental test facilities. Commissioning Phase Begins Following deployment, the satellite platform will undergo commissioning over the coming months, involving activation and testing of all spacecraft subsystems. SpeQtral and RAL Space will then commission their respective quantum payload and optical system, with this phased approach ensuring thorough validation before progressing to quantum experiments and other out of band key delivery mechanisms. "SpeQtre is the first satellite developed through our agile mission facility, and a credit to the teams who have worked hard to deliver the payload for launch," said Andy Vick, Disruptive Technology Lead at RAL Space and UK Principal Investigator for SpeQtre. "By approaching this mission with speed and creativity, they have already paved the way for more ambitious missions ahead, including future UK demonstrators. But for now, for SpeQtre, the real fun begins as we look forward to the beginning of our quantum experiments in space." Addressing Cybersecurity Challenges Space-based quantum communications address critical emerging needs as quantum computing advances threaten conventional encryption methods. Unlike terrestrial fibre networks which are distance-limited, satellite-based systems provide quantum-secure communications across vast distances without requiring additional intermediary trusted repeater nodes. The mission supports broader international efforts to establish quantum-secure communication networks, including the European Space Agency's INT-UQKD and Q-DESIGN programmes, highlighting global recognition of quantum communications as critical technology for future cybersecurity. Singapore-UK Partnership The SpeQtre collaboration stems from a Singapore-UK bilateral initiative designed to strengthen technological cooperation between the two nations. It is part of the Space Technology Development Programme administered by the Office for Space Technology & Industry (OSTIn), Singapore's national space office, and the National Quantum Technologies Programme administered by UK Research and Innovation. The cooperation leverages Singapore's quantum expertise at SpeQtral, and UK's world-class space engineering capabilities at RAL Space. "The launch of SpeQtre represents a significant milestone in the Singapore-UK collaboration on space technologies, showcasing Singapore's leadership in space-based quantum communications. Through the Space Technology Development Programme, OSTIn has supported SpeQtral's developments in quantum key distribution technologies, which is vital to ensure quantum-secure communications in an increasingly interconnected world. This mission reinforces the value of strategic international partnerships in driving innovation and advancing critical technologies." said Mr. Jonathan Hung, Executive Director of Office for Space Technology & Industry, Singapore (OSTIn). Operations Timeline and Looking Ahead Following the commissioning phase, quantum communications experiments are expected to begin in early 2026. The mission will start by conducting experiments with quantum-enabled optical ground stations at the Centre for Quantum Technologies at the National University of Singapore, and at RAL Space's Chilbolton Observatory in Hampshire, UK. Data from these experiments will allow for demonstrations of secured communications between the two sites and inform development of future commercial quantum communications satellites. As quantum computing capabilities advance, the need for quantum-secure communications becomes increasingly urgent for governments, financial institutions, and critical infrastructure operators worldwide. Success in this mission will demonstrate the viability of cost-effective, small-satellite approaches to quantum communications, potentially accelerating deployment of commercial quantum communications constellations while establishing important precedents for international cooperation in quantum technologies and space-based security systems.
