Embracing Public and Private R&I and R&D
QIT-J aims to foster collaboration between academic researchers and industry practitioners by embracing research and innovation (R&I) and research and development (R&D) from both public and private sectors. This journal publishes high-quality scientific papers alongside articles highlighting industrial applications and case studies, thereby promoting the translation of theoretical research into practical solutions.
The Need for Quantum Information Technologies Journal
QIT-J is crucial, given the accelerating pace of advancements in quantum technologies and the increasing number of interdisciplinary applications. Current publications often focus narrowly on scientific research or industrial applications, leading to a fragmented understanding of the field. By integrating these perspectives, QIT-J provides a holistic view, facilitating knowledge transfer and collaboration across different domains. This integrated approach is essential for addressing complex challenges and harnessing the full potential of quantum technologies.
