Investing in the promise of quantum

MIT has launched a new presidential initiative called QMIT to advance quantum technologies and ensure their ethical use. The initiative aims to leverage MIT's strengths in quantum science and engineering to develop capabilities in computing, communication, and sensing. QMIT will focus on co-developing quantum tools with a societal benefit in mind, integrating with Lincoln Laboratory for expertise in scaling and deployment. The initiative also includes industry collaborations through the Quantum Science and Engineering Consortium and envisions a physical space on campus for quantum engagement. QMIT seeks to shape the future of quantum by tackling challenging problems and invites alumni and supporters to join in this effort.
