The Quantum Technologies Forum is an international platform bringing together experts, policymakers, and business leaders to explore the future of quantum innovation across BRICS countries and their global partners.
The Forum will focus on how quantum technologies — as a rapidly evolving multidisciplinary field — are shaping key industries, accelerating economic development, and opening new opportunities across the BRICS+ ecosystem.
Participants will include representatives of government institutions, leading companies, and top scientific organizations from BRICS member states and partner countries.
The Forum is part of the official roadmap following the 13th BRICS Meeting of Ministers of Science, Technology and Innovation (June 25, 2025).Quantum technologies were also identified as a priority area in the declaration of the 17th BRICS Summit held in Rio de Janeiro in July 2025.
As a global leader in nuclear technologies, Rosatom is actively expanding into new frontiers that address some of the world’s most pressing challenges. Quantum technology is one of these strategic areas. Russia has already developed prototypes of quantum computers, is advancing dedicated software solutions, building a national quantum education ecosystem, and launching real-world applications of quantum computing. We see quantum technologies as a key driver of global progress. This is why the time has come to develop a shared BRICS framework for collaboration in this field — building on the foundation of the BRICS Nuclear Energy Platform initiated by Rosatom. We invite Forum participants to join this dialogue and contribute to shaping joint initiatives that will strengthen national economies, improve quality of life, and support the sustainable future of our planet.
Director General of Rosatom State Corporation
Russia has a long-standing tradition of excellence in quantum physics. This scientific foundation has enabled the country to establish a strong global position in quantum computing prototypes and quantum software development. Today, Russia’s quantum technology programs bring together leading research institutions, universities, and industry players, with strong coordination supported by state corporations. Russia is actively engaged in the global quantum ecosystem, collaborating with international partners who share a common interest in advancing this field. Quantum technologies represent a powerful resource for the future of science, industry, and markets. The BRICS Quantum Technologies Forum is expected to create new opportunities for collaboration in research and education, leading to tangible projects and initiatives.

The ATOM Museum is a state-of-the-art educational and exhibition complex dedicated to nuclear energy. With a total area of over 25,000 square meters, it hosts the largest and most advanced nuclear energy exhibition in Russia and can accommodate more than 2,000 visitors at a time.
Quantum technologies are one of the most promising areas of modern science based on the principles of quantum mechanics. Unlike classical systems, where information is stored as bits (0 or 1), the quantum world uses qubits, which can be in several states at once due to the phenomenon of superposition. This opens up opportunities for information processing with fundamentally new speed and efficiency.
One of the key areas is the development of quantum computers that are capable of solving tasks that are inaccessible even to the most powerful supercomputers. Large companies such as IBM and Google are already actively investing in this area, demonstrating the first prototypes and achievements. In addition to computing, quantum technologies are used in cryptography, providing almost invulnerable data protection due to the laws of physics.
Equally important are quantum sensors and communications. They make it possible to create ultra-precise measuring instruments and secure communication channels based on the effect of quantum entanglement. In the future, such technologies can change medicine, navigation, and telecommunications, making them more accurate, safer, and faster.
Despite the enormous potential, the development of quantum technologies faces a number of difficulties. Quantum systems are very sensitive to external influences, and even minimal interference can disrupt their operation. However, scientists around the world continue to actively work on solving these problems, and in the coming decades, quantum technologies may become as familiar a part of our lives as the Internet or smartphones.
