Joint research
Joint research efforts bring together universities, industry players, and government agencies to collaboratively advance quantum technologies through shared expertise, co-authored studies, and integrated R&D programmes. These partnerships enable multidisciplinary exploration of quantum computing, sensing, communications, and quantum-safe cybersecurity, ensuring that discoveries are rapidly translated into practical innovations that address national priorities.
Pilot deployments
Pilot deployments allow collaborators to validate quantum solutions in real operational environments, demonstrating performance, reliability, and impact across sectors such as finance, energy, healthcare, logistics, and security. These pilots serve as critical proof-of-value exercises that help refine system architectures, identify deployment challenges, and accelerate the pathway from prototype to adoption at scale.
Testbeds & sandbox environments
Testbeds and sandbox environments provide controlled, instrumented platforms where partners can safely experiment with emerging quantum technologies without disrupting production systems. These environments support algorithm testing, hardware evaluation, interoperability trials, and hybrid classical–quantum workflow validation, enabling rapid experimentation and reducing technical risk before nationwide rollout.
Knowledge-sharing and workforce upskilling
This collaboration stream focuses on building a strong national talent pipeline through co-organised training programmes, technical workshops, certification tracks, and knowledge-sharing sessions. Partners benefit from access to specialised expertise in quantum computing, AI, photonics, and cybersecurity, ensuring Malaysia develops a future-ready workforce capable of driving quantum innovation across academia and industry.
Commercialisation pathways
Commercialisation pathways help transition quantum research outputs into market-ready products, services, and intellectual property by providing support in prototyping, regulatory alignment, venture creation, IP protection, and scaling strategies. Through coordinated industry engagement and government backing, these pathways ensure that Malaysia’s quantum innovations create economic impact and contribute to a competitive national technology ecosystem.
Collaborators gain access to:
Reedfish QaaS platform
Collaborators gain access to a Quantum-as-a-Service (QaaS) platform that provides cloud-based tools, quantum simulators, algorithm libraries, and hybrid classical–quantum compute environments for developing and testing advanced quantum applications. This enables seamless experimentation and accelerates innovation cycles across diverse sectors.
Lab facilities
Partners are granted access to specialised laboratory facilities equipped for quantum hardware characterisation, photonics development, cryogenic experimentation, sensing instrumentation, and cybersecurity validation. These labs serve as national innovation hubs that support hands-on R&D and prototype development.
Talent pools
Collaboration with the centre unlocks access to highly skilled talent, including researchers, engineers, postgraduate students, and technical specialists trained in quantum, AI, and advanced sensing disciplines. This talent ecosystem strengthens R&D capacity and supports workforce development for industry and government stakeholders.
National innovation funding programmes
Collaborators can leverage national innovation funding programmes that support joint R&D, technology pilot projects, start-up creation, and large-scale deployment of quantum solutions. These programmes reduce financial barriers, accelerate technology translation, and align innovation outcomes with Malaysia’s strategic science and economic goals.
