Abstract
This report draws on the discussions of the 2026 Quantum Diplomacy in Action Conference, organised by GESDA and the Open Quantum Institute in May 2026 in Geneva. The conference brought together over 60 participants from diplomacy, government, international organisations, academia and industry, and was held under the Chatham House Rule. GESDA and the OQI are grateful to all participants for their candour and expertise. In line with the Rule, no statement in this report is attributed to any individual or institution. This report includes a series of standalone reports describing the national quantum strategies of various nations or blocs. Lack of representation here does not indicate that countries or blocs do not have national quantum strategies.
This report is not a consensus document. It reflects the rapporteur's synthesis of the discussions and does not necessarily represent the views of individual participants, their institutions, GESDA, the OQI, CERN or the Swiss Federal Department of Foreign Affairs.
