Kazan city in Russia will on April 3, 2024 host the next BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa) summit where scientists from the bloc member states will present interesting cases on quantum technology.
Russian scientists have asserted their interest in building close quantum technology collaborations with India and China .
Alexey Fedorov, principal investigator of the “Quantum Information Technologies” group at Moscow-based Quantum Center, said, “Last year, we had a wonderful trip to India. We met many scientists and we see a lot of potential for collaboration.We need to create a Brics quantum laboratory .And this network of labs which we will create in different countries, (will) work under maybe a joint research program.
“Because together we can make things which are very hard to do alone. We can collaborate about quantum computing, maybe solving problems and exchanging opinions and we collaborate about quantum sensing and different technologies and make our Brics alliance to be stronger,” Fedorov said.

According to President Vladimir Putin who will hold the BRICS presidency next year, “we expect to discuss specific projects like this in several key areas with our partners, including cutting-edge computing technology, as well as data processing, storage and transmission technologies.”
Putin has also proposed a “national technology project” for 2030, which includes establishing a roadmap for Russian quantum technology development.
