About Mission Coordination Cell (National Quantum Mission)

National Quantum Mission (NQM) is a large-scale mission with the aim to develop indigenous quantum capabilities in the country. On completion of this mission, we expect to be in the front row of the countries having quantum advantage. The Department of Science and Technology (DST) is implementing this mission with funding from the Govt. of India. Since DST has significant numbers of missions and projects ongoing, a dedicated cell, the ‘Mission Coordination Cell (MCC)’ has been established to coordinate all the activities under this mission to accomplish mission success. NQM-MCC has been setup at IIT Kanpur with its main office at IIT Kanpur’s Outreach Centre at Noida for effective coordination with Mission Secretariat at DST. The MCC will not only facilitate connection of Technical Hubs (T-Hubs), which will be established in four verticals of NQM, with ministries, national agencies, industries, subject matter experts, and other stakeholders for  deployment and technology transfer of quantum technology products, but it will also connect NQM with other national initiatives like Digital India, Make in India, Skill India, Start-up India, Self-Reliant India, and Missions like National Mission on Interdisciplinary Cyber Physical Systems (NM-ICPS) and National Super Computing Mission (NSCM). With effective communication and discussion about the mission activities and progresses with DST and Mission Technology Research Council (MTRC), MCC at IIT Kanpur aims to facilitate coordination required at all levels to ensure National Quantum Mission’s success.
