US Dept. of Energy (DoE) recently re-up'd a $625M investment to support the five National QIS Research Centers. These centers will now expand to include collaborations with over 50 academic institutions and 18 industry partners. The goal is to overcome key challenges in quantum computing, scale systems, and apply quantum technologies to real-world scientific problems.
Center renewals include: Brookhaven National Laboratory, Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory, Argonne National Laboratory, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory , and Oak Ridge National Laboratory.
Funds will be provided over the next five years, with an initial disbursement of $125M in Fiscal Year 2025 funding, contingent on congressional appropriations. https://www.energy.gov/articles/energy-department-announces-625-million-advance-next-phase-national-quantum-information #USDoE #Quantum #QuantumComputing #QuantumTechnologies #DepartmentofEnergy #USGov #QIS #Funding
