By bringing together people from American universities, national laboratories, institutions and other organizations to establish QIS center, QIS center will help countries to establish a comprehensive ecosystem, in order to stimulate progress in the field of quantum computing, communications, and sensing and discovery.
The core purpose of QIS Research Center is to bring together many different people to solve complex problems, so the department pointed out that the application QIS research centers should submit an application by a single lead agency in the form of a multi-agency organization. The agency will accept pre-applications until at 17:00 on February 10. The Energy Department plans before March 10 via e-mail reply to the application submitted, in order to provide recommendations accordingly. The final deadline for applications is April 10.
Energy Minister Brouillette said, "QIS is at the threshold will be provided in the next decades the impact of scientific discovery and technological innovation transformational technology."
