📋 Tender Overview
The German Embassy Tokyo has published a report on quantum technology research in Japan.On June 15 the Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft put the first IBM Quantum System One into operation in Europe in the presence of Chancellor Merkel in Ehningen . In the next few months an IBM Quantum System One will also go into operation in the Kawasaki Business Incubation Center KBIC in Japan . With these new systems very complex calculations can be carried out in a short time that cannot be carried out with conventional high-performance computers or only with an unacceptably high expenditure of time. This opens up completely new possibilities for example in materials research pharmacy and logistics.Scientists around the world are researching the further development of this technology and developing the first practical applications. The collaboration between industry government and universities in Japan in the research and development of quantum technologies is gaining momentum. Japan and the EU are at a similar stage of development. In the cooperation with Germany the areas of quantum computing communication and cryptography are particularly promising.Japan is willing to research and develop quantum technologies programmatically in multilateral bilateral cooperation. A report published by the German Embassy in Tokyo provides an overview of the current status of quantum technology research in Japan and points out points of reference to Germany.
