QUANTUM FOR GOOD:FRONTIER TECHNOLOGY FOR THE SDGS

Summit of the Future Action Days – Side Event


QUANTUM FOR GOOD:
FRONTIER TECHNOLOGY FOR THE SDGS



CONCEPT NOTE

The United Nations International Computing Centre (UNICC) is organizing the
high-level side event “Quantum for Good: Frontier Technology for the SDGs”
during the Summit of the Future Action Days. The event is co-sponsored by the
International Telecommunication Union (ITU), along with the Republic of Namibia,
the Kingdom of the Netherlands, the World Economic Forum and Quantum Delta NL.
Accenture is generously hosting the event.

Quantum technologies – including computing, sensing, and communication –
represent the next frontier of technological advancement, with the potential to
revolutionize fields such as climate modeling, drug discovery, financial
forecasting, and secure communication. By harnessing the power of quantum
mechanics, its applications offer the ability to address some of the world’s
most pressing challenges with unprecedented speed and precision.

In June 2024, the UN General Assembly declared 2025 as the International Year of
Quantum Science and Technology, recognizing the significance of raising public
awareness about quantum science and its applications for sustainable
development. In this context, this side event will explore the transformative
potential of quantum technologies in accelerating progress towards the
Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), as well as challenges in unlocking their
full impact.

The different discussions will bring together international organizations,
Member States, civil society, the private sector and industry leaders, and will
feature a distinguished panel of experts from government, industry and academia,
addressing several key topics:

 * The current state of quantum technologies and their potential applications in
   sustainable development
 * Case studies of quantum solutions addressing specific SDGs
 * Strategies for fostering international cooperation in quantum research and
   development
 * Ensuring equitable access to quantum technologies across developed and
   developing nations
 * Ethical considerations and governance frameworks for responsible quantum
   innovation



By bringing together diverse stakeholders, this event will chart a course for
leveraging quantum technologies to create a more sustainable and equitable
world. It will play a crucial role in shaping the global agenda for harnessing
these cutting-edge technologies to accelerate progress towards achieving the
SDGs by 2030.
