## Notice

The EPSRC seeks to commission a public dialogue activity to explore public views on Quantum Technologies and the devices which will be generated through activities currently taking place in the National Quantum Technologies Programme. The main aim is therefore to identify the publics' preferences around the current and future research. This will have the potential to change the nature of the research as it takes place rather than retrospectively. The public dialogue could be used to inform and shape the research in the next phase of the National Quantum Technology Programme as well as the current phase.
