The UK and Japan have signed a broad \u00a318 billion investment deal that includes plans to work together on high priority frontier technology challenges.<\/p>\n

The idea is to combine the UK’s software and research capabilities with Japan’s hardware and manufacturing power, and collaborate on crucial technologies.<\/p>\n

Support will be provided through government co-operation and coordinated, targeted R&D support, along with efforts to mobilize private capital towards strategic technologies\u200b, fostering commercial collaboration and supporting high-potential companies to emerge and scale.<\/p>\n

The two countries will also cooperate on international standards and regulations.<\/p>\n

“As G7 economies and close security partners, we are working together with Japan on some of the most innovative technology in the world, harnessing the best of British and Japanese research and industry to deliver growth and security to every corner of the United Kingdom,” said Prime Minister Keir Starmer.<\/p>\n

Building on last year’s Quantum Memorandum of Cooperation, the Frontier Technology Partnership (FTP) will include the development of globally competitive, commercially scalable, and deployable quantum technologies, including computing, sensing, and communications.<\/p>\n

UK and Japanese businesses will export, invest, and conduct R&D in one another’s markets, with joint, long-term collaboration on quantum high-performance computing (HPC) integration. In parallel with this, the government said, the two countries will advance practical applications of quantum technologies across the computing, sensing, communication, and networking sectors, strengthening cooperation on testbeds, evaluation frameworks, and system integration.<\/p>\n
