NPS VeriQon is a collaborative project between government institutions and companies for the rapid and reliable identification of psychoactive substances (including on-site detection) and validation of experimental analytical data in a novel, holistic approach. This is to be ensured by intelligent data matching as well as artificial intelligence and quantum chemical simulations in order to be able to derive court-proof statements. The ergonomics and usability of the NPS Data Hub (exchange platform/database) will be further optimized in order to reduce entry barriers and thus further increase acceptance.

The NPS VeriQon project is funded by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (KMU-innovativ: Research for Civil Security) over a period of three years (July 2022 - June 2025).

The acronym NPS VeriQon stands for "Software-supported Structure Validation and Authenticity Verification for New Psychoactive Substances to Optimize International Data Exchange".
