New Report: Early Signals From the QED-C Quantum Workshop

The Early Signals From the QED-C Quantum Workshop report insights brief summarizes key observations from ASCET’s inaugural workshop on quantum technology standardization, held during the 2025 QED-C Annual Meeting. The session convened representatives from industry, startups, academia, standards organizations, and other stakeholders to explore emerging challenges related to quantum standards development, workforce readiness, and barriers to participation in the standards ecosystem.

Through facilitated discussions and breakout groups, participants examined foundational gaps in terminology, benchmarking, and performance metrics across the quantum ecosystem, as well as practical barriers that limit engagement in standards activities. The workshop also highlighted early workforce considerations, including the need for interdisciplinary training and greater awareness of the role standards play in accelerating innovation and market adoption.
