Serving as an international policy research hub and forum, QTOPS is dedicated to identifying, analysing and disseminating a range of quantum technology trends and data with the broader community. Our research on quantum technology and its potential impacts is both proactive and focused, aiming to answer key questions relevant to policymakers and government representatives, business and industry leaders, entrepreneurs, researchers and society at large.

For the initial pilot phase of the work, QTOPS is focusing on research and analysis related to quantum technology education, skills and workforce development, which have been widely recognised as critical issues that are poised to impact the trajectory of this rapidly advancing technology. Over time, we will expand our efforts to explore policy topics such as research and innovation leadership; governance, ethics and responsible innovation; applications, commercialisation and societal impact; security and risks; global cooperation; and infrastructure, access and supply chains.
