Policy Implications Derived from Analyzing Conference Data in the Field of Quantum Technology

ORAL

Abstract

The utilization of quantum technology is increasingly permeating our society across industries, research, and education. To ensure its positive and responsible diffusion, policy research is needed to promote public understanding of the technology and its potential impacts on the economy, society, and technological landscape. Using data from 2025, we analyzed presentations related to quantum technology from major academic conferences — including APS, DAMOP, OPTICA, and QCE — to explore recent research and technological trends. Based on this analysis, we aim to present key policy implications for fostering investment and policymaking in the field of quantum technology, considering education, social impacts, and international collaboration.
