Ekaterina Soltseva, director of Quantum Technology at Rosatom, shared this commitment during an interview with Vietnam News Agency on the sidelines of the Moscow Future Technologies Forum 2025, held from February 20-21.
During the event, Rosatom showcased its latest advancements, including significant developments in quantum technology, an area considered to hold great potential for international collaboration, especially with Vietnam.
Soltseva emphasized the transformative impact of quantum computing, noting its application across various sectors such as nuclear energy, pharmaceuticals, vaccine research, and the development of advanced materials.
With its ability to optimize complex processes, quantum computing is expected to enhance healthcare, extend human lifespans, and improve daily life.

Currently, only a select few countries, including China, the United States, and Russia, operate quantum computers across all four major platforms: superconducting, ion, neutral atom, and photon. Russia is one of six nations that have developed quantum computers with capacities surpassing 50 qubits, with a focus on ion and neutral atom platforms.
Rosatom has expressed strong interest in fostering collaboration with Vietnam in this advanced field. As a first step, the corporation has extended an invitation to Vietnamese scientists to attend its international quantum technology conference, scheduled to take place in Moscow this July.
The conference is expected to be a key platform for deeper engagement, providing Vietnamese researchers with insights into Rosatom’s latest innovations and exploring opportunities for potential partnerships.
As cooperation between Vietnam and Russia in nuclear energy continues to grow, Rosatom’s quantum technology initiatives represent a promising area for synergy. The corporation is also working with universities worldwide to develop quantum technology training programs, particularly within the BRICS framework, creating further opportunities for Vietnam-Russia collaboration.
