Description
RIS will be offering support with application development for this opportunity. Prospective applicants are encouraged to contact Jennifer Stevens (v5js@mun.ca) or Amanda Crompton (ajcrompt@mun.ca) early during the development process to discuss the services available to them.
At the 2025 G7 Leaders’ summit, members developed the Kananaskis Common Vision for the Future of Quantum Technologies, committing to boost cooperation to unlock the full potential of quantum technology to grow economies, solve global challenges and keep communities secure. Canada holds the 2025 G7 Presidency and has committed to building a new era of collaboration with G7 partners. To support these commitments, the Government announced investments to build stronger economies and international systems, including the establishment of a quantum research fund to accelerate the development and use of quantum technologies.
The G7 Countries Alliance International Catalyst Quantum grants provide up to $25,000 for one year to support Canadian academic researchers in initiating and developing research collaborations with international researchers from the academic sector in G7 member countries in the areas of quantum science and quantum technologies. It is expected that 25 to 40 grants will be awarded. Important: For this call, applications including collaborators outside of G7 member countries are not accepted. A separate funding opportunity has been established to support collaborations exclusively with academic researchers from other countries. Please refer to the Alliance International Catalyst Quantum funding opportunity for more information.
