Toward the Realization of the “New Silicon Island Kyushu"
— To realize a vibrant regional economy and society with semiconductors from Kyushu —




Mr. Yoshinori Taguchi
Director, Economic Policy Division, Economic Policy Department, Kyushu Bureau of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI-Kyushu)

Abstract: The current state of the semiconductor industry in Kyushu and the activities of the “Kyushu Consortium for Human Resource Development of Semiconductors,” which aims to develop and secure semiconductor human resources, will be introduced, along with the history of “Silicon Island Kyushu” and the challenges it faces.
In June 2021, the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI) formulated the “Semiconductor and Digital Industry Strategy” and has been promoting efforts nationwide to secure the manufacturing basis for semiconductors essential to industry and society, and to develop and secure semiconductor human resources.
In Kyushu, ”Kyushu Consortium for Semiconductor Human Resource Development” with the participation of almost 150 industrial, educational, administrative, and financial institutions, is at the core of various initiatives as the nation's top runner in this field. The latest developments are introduced here.

New concept of industry-level large-scale quantum computer



Dr. Masahiro Horibe
Deputy Director, Global Research and Development Center for Business by Quantum-AI Technology (G-QuAT), The National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST)

Abstract: With the active research and development of quantum computers, the efforts of quantum technology field is expanding into industrialization. However, if existing 200- to 300-qubit class quantum computer system technologies, components, and devices are used as is, even if a quantum computer could be realized, the challenges of cost, power consumption, weight, and size would prevent industrialization. Therefore, we propose a new system concept and strategically construct the supply chain necessary for it.

Paper Submission

To encourage timely reporting of the latest results and have better opportunities to expand papers for possible journal publications, prospective authors are invited to submit a 3-page manuscript (both initial submission and final manuscript, if accepted) in English and in IEEE PDF eXpress format. The manuscript should emphasize original contributions and key findings, including figures, diagrams and results from both simulations and measurements. References should be clearly cited and up-to-date. Accepted conference papers can be submitted for inclusion into IEEE Xplore subject to meeting IEEE Xplore's scope and quality requirements. By submitting a manuscript, the authors agree that, if accepted, at least one of the authors will make a full registration and attend the RFIT2025 to present their paper.  All must be made through the RFIT2025 website: www.rfit2025.org
