Quantum science and technology is at a crucial point of development, with a short window for policy frameworks to be implemented before the rollout of a class of disruptive technologies. Academic and industry communities have a long track record of international collaboration to advance research and development. An emerging consensus in these communities holds that governments have a role to play in providing a framework for continued collaboration. As noted in the “Kananaskis Common Vision for the Future of Quantum Technologies,” multilateral institutions can support responsible policy development within and between states by promoting international dialogue and collaboration.
