On the afternoon of October 16th, the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee held the 24th collective study on quantum technology research and application prospects.

When presiding over the study, Xi Jinping, General Secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, emphasized that the world is undergoing major changes unseen in a century and technological innovation is one of the key variables.

If we want to nurture opportunities in crises and open new games amidst changes, we must seek answers from technological innovation.

It is necessary to fully understand the importance and urgency of promoting the development of quantum technology, strengthen the strategic planning and system layout of quantum technology development, grasp the general trend, and make good moves.

Group learning purpose

  Understand the development trend of quantum technology in the world, analyze the development situation of quantum technology in my country, and better promote the development of quantum technology in China.

The importance of developing quantum technology

  In recent years, quantum technology has developed by leaps and bounds and has become the frontier of a new round of technological revolution and industrial transformation.

Accelerating the development of quantum technology plays a very important role in promoting high-quality development and ensuring national security.

The development of quantum technology has great scientific significance and strategic value. It is a major disruptive technological innovation that impacts and reconstructs the traditional technological system, and will lead a new round of technological revolution and industrial transformation.

Achievements and challenges

  Chinese scientific and technological workers are catching up in quantum technology and have achieved a number of major innovations with international influence.

Generally speaking, our country has already possessed the scientific and technological strength and innovation ability in the field of quantum technology.

At the same time, we must also realize that there are many shortcomings in the development of quantum technology in my country, and development is facing multiple challenges.
