The United Nations has designated 2025 as the International Year of Quantum. This decision underscores the transformative potential of quantum science and technology, which is set to revolutionize various industries and shape the future of humanity. From computing and communication to healthcare and climate solutions, quantum technologies promise groundbreaking advancements.

The UN’s initiative aims to:
