Japanese government settled 2025 as “first year of QC industrialization”. Council for Japan's Growth Strategy incorporated Quantum into “17 Strategic Sectors (❶)” and “6 National Strategic Technology Fields (❷)”. In 2026, upon the launch of the second cabinet, an official directive from Prime Minister Takaichi to METI Minister Akazawa explicitly stated that “150+ trillion JPY in GX investments including optical QC over next decade according to GX2024 vision (❸)”. It is expected to accelerate commercialization of QC through expansion of basic research, national quantum research centers and support for startups. ❶ 17 Strategic Sectors ❷ 6 National Strategic Technologies ❸GX related investment sectors Shipbuilding Security Food Energy Disaster prevention Medical IT Material Port logistics Defense AI quantum Semi- conductor Biotech Space Fusion quantum (optical) Semi- conductor (PEC) Contents Marin CEO Takase made a company’s introduction to Prime Minister Takaichi and Minister Kiuchi “Opinion Exchange Meeting with entrepreneurs (2026/5/25)”
Computing Infrastructure Switch! • Realizing dramatically smart and energy efficient computers than ever before. • Today’s computers consume enormous power and bring a serious risk of accelerating the depletion of energy resources caused by adoption of DX/AI. • Quantum computers are widely expected globally to solve these issues. OptQC aims to revolutionize information technology through an optical approach, an area in which Japan excels. What We Aim to Achieve Optical QC Quiet and Eco!
