On December 9, 2025, G7 Industry, Digital and Technology (IDT) Ministers met in Montreal, Canada, under Canada’s G7 Presidency. The Republic of Korea was welcomed as an invited guest and the OECD as knowledge partner.
According to the G7 IDT Ministerial Declaration, ministers announced the G7 Kananaskis Common Vision for the Future of Quantum Technologies and established a pilot G7 Joint Working Group on Quantum Technologies. The working group was tasked with informing cooperation on research, development, and commercialization; advancing policy dialogues on innovation and adoption; and assessing societal impacts as quantum technologies progress toward commercial and defense applications. South Korea’s attendance as an invited guest placed it alongside G7 members in discussions on quantum policy coordination.
