Guangzhou’s outline for its 15th Five-Year Plan calls for targeted R&D on 6G
technologies and key components, space–air–ground integrated communications, and
optical communication technologies and networks. It sets six priorities
application scenarios: immersive communication, massive connectivity,
ultra‑reliable low‑latency communications (URLLC), AI‑communications
convergence, sensing‑communications convergence and ubiquitous linking. The plan
also pushes R&D in quantum computing, quantum precision measurement and quantum
communications, and calls for pilot deployment of quantum technologies in
finance, transport, healthcare and meteorology/environmental protection. It aims
to build a Guangdong‑Hong Kong‑Macao Greater Bay Area quantum technology
industry innovation centre.
