The European Commission has put forward the Quantum Strategy to make Europe a global leader in quantum by 2030.

A press release issued by the Commission on 3 July said that the Strategy will foster a resilient, sovereign quantum ecosystem that fuels startup growth and transforms breakthrough science into market-ready applications, while maintaining Europe's scientific leadership.

Quantum technologies, it added, will revolutionise addressing complex challenges, from pharmaceutical breakthroughs to securing critical infrastructure. They will open new opportunities for the EU's industrial competitiveness and tech sovereignty, with strong dual-use potential for defence and security.

By 2040, the sector is expected to create thousands of highly skilled jobs across the EU and exceed a global value of €155 billion.

The Strategy targets five areas: research and innovation, quantum infrastructures, ecosystem strengthening, space and dual-use technologies, and quantum skills, the press release said.
