Technology Assessment of Quantum Technologies: Sovereignty, Security, and Access
summary
A technology assessment compiles a literature review, 40+ expert interviews, a stakeholder survey and a visions workshop and publishes a report (finished May 2025) that finds three quarters of public quantum funding concentrated in US/Canada, Europe and China and roughly 55 billion public investment counted globally; Europe excels in quantum sensors but shows dependence on non-European actors for computing hardware, risks strategic buyouts, and needs PQC implementation needed urgently, EU-harmonized export controls, targeted SME outreach and more lifecycle sustainability data.
