About QIH
Quantum technology is bringing a great impact on a wide range of industry. In order to accelerate the progress and make best use of quantum technology, industry, academia and government are expected to collaborate on promoting basic research, technology demonstration, industrialization, intellectual property management and human resource development. For promoting these activities, Japan established Quantum Technology Innovation Hubs in February 2021.
- Quantum computation pioneering hub (RIKEN)
- Quantum sensing hub (Tokyo Tech)
- Foundational quantum technology and quantum life R&D hub (QST)
- Quantum material hub (NIMS)
- Quantum solution hub (Tohoku University)
- hub of Quantum-based chemistry for industry development (THERS)
- Quantum technology international collaboration hub (OIST)
- Quantum security hub (NICT)
- Quantum computer applications hub (UTokyo & Business alliance)
- Quantum software hub (Osaka University)
- hub of Global research and development for business by quantum-AI technology (AIST)
RIKEN serves as Headquarters of the Hubs to incorporate efforts to advance
quantum technology research in Japan.
