Title: NIST Quantum Consortium Requires Member Agreement
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has established a consortium for quantum computing research and development. To participate, members must sign a Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRADA). The CRADA outlines key objectives for the consortium’s work.
Key Points:
– CRADA terms are shared among all members
– Agreement cannot be negotiated except at renewal or extension (currently November 2024)
– Contact Jeff DiVietro or Jonathan Seppala for CRADA details
The CRADA is essential for coordinating research efforts among consortium members. By signing the agreement, members commit to working together towards the consortium’s shared objectives in quantum computing. The agreement will remain in effect until November 2024, at which point it may be renewed or extended.
