(MENAFN- Robotics & Automation News) Fujitsu and AIST partner to strengthen international 'industrial competitiveness in quantum technology'

September 29, 2025 by David Edwards

Fujitsu and the Global Research and Development Center for Business by Quantum-AI technology (G-QuAT) at Japan's National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST) have signed a collaboration agreement to strengthen international industrial competitiveness in quantum technology.

The agreement, signed last week, aims to enhance cooperation between the two organizations, thereby boosting Japan's standing globally in this sector.

As part of the agreement, Fujitsu and G-QuAT will leverage their combined resources, including quantum computer-related technologies, manufacturing and evaluation facilities, and will promote research and development and personnel exchange.

In this way, the partnership aims to foster international collaboration and research cooperation, ultimately contributing to sustainable economic growth.

Scaling up quantum computers requires the integration of diverse elemental technologies and the comprehensive verification and optimization of the entire quantum computer system.

To address this challenge, the two organizations will promote research cooperation, including the development of supporting environments and demonstration of technologies necessary for large-scale superconducting quantum computers, maximizing the use of G-QuAT's facilities and its hub function for international collaboration.

Through this initiative, the partners aim to establish the superiority of Japan's quantum computing technology, including that of component manufacturers, and actively promote it globally to foster expansion into the international market.
