Strengthening Europe’s Role in Quantum Innovation

The European Quantum Industry Consortium (QuIC) is proud to release its latest Position Paper on the EU Quantum Strategy, providing a strategic vision for the future of quantum technologies in Europe. As global competition intensifies, it is crucial for Europe to take decisive action to secure its leadership in quantum computing, quantum communication, and quantum sensing. This paper outlines the essential steps needed to reinforce Europe’s position, ensuring the development of a thriving quantum ecosystem that fosters innovation, investment, and economic growth.

The Urgent Need for Action

Quantum technologies are poised to revolutionize industries, impacting finance, healthcare, mobility, and national security. However, without the right policies, investments, and regulatory frameworks, Europe risks falling behind in the global race. This Position Paper presents strategic recommendations to strengthen Europe’s quantum industry, enhance supply chain resilience, promote strategic autonomy, and create an investment-friendly environment that supports both startups and established companies. By acting now, the EU can position itself as a global quantum powerhouse.

Investing in Talent and Intellectual Property 

One of the key challenges Europe faces is the need for a skilled quantum workforce. Talent development, education, and research must align with industry needs to ensure that Europe remains competitive in this rapidly evolving field. Additionally, intellectual property (IP) and commercialization play a crucial role in transforming scientific breakthroughs into market-ready solutions. The Position Paper also highlights the importance of quantum standards and benchmarks, reinforcing Europe’s influence in shaping global quantum policies and technologies.

Be Part of the Quantum Future

The time to act is now. This Position Paper provides a clear roadmap for policymakers, industry leaders, and researchers to collaborate in building a strong and competitive quantum ecosystem in Europe.
