  • Quantum computation pioneering hub (RIKEN)
  • Quantum sensing hub (Science Tokyo (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.
