The European Commission has proposed a strategy to position Europe as a global leader in quantum technology by 2030. The initiative aims to advance the quantum sector while preserving Europe’s scientific edge.
The new stratedy is aimed at strengthening the European Union’s competitiveness, technological sovereignty, and security.
The strategy focuses on five areas: research and innovation, quantum infrastructures, ecosystem strengthening, space and dual-use technologies, and quantum skills.
Specific actions have been identified to meet the strategy’s objectives, such as:
- launching the quantum Europe research and innovation initiative
- establishing a quantum design facility and six quantum chips pilot lines
- launching a pilot facility for the European quantum internet
- expanding the network of Quantum Competence Clusters across the EU and establishing the European quantum skills academy in 2026
- developing a quantum technology roadmap in space with the European Space Agency and contributing to the European armament technological roadmap
"By 2040, the quantum sector is expected to create thousands of highly skilled jobs across the EU and exceed a global value of €155 billion ($183 billion). Not only that, but the advances in quantum technologies will make it possible to do things that simply cannot be done today – from diagnosing diseases more quickly to performing complex computational tasks," the Commission stated.
The Commission will work closely with EU countries and the European quantum community to turn the strategy’s objectives into reality.
The strategy will be followed by a quantum act proposal, expected in 2026, which will further strengthen the quantum ecosystem and industrialisation efforts.
