Future Visions for Quantum Computing in Germany: How Do We Define Success
summary
Germany runs a clear roadmap backed by roughly €2 billion in public funding and regional hubs like Munich Quantum Valley, but progress hinges on system integration, VC access and industry-grade supply chains. Roadmaps cite scaling from 5 to 5,000 qubits by 2026 and teams already hire about 110 quantum physicists in some labs. Companies push quantum as a service and hybrid quantum–HPC stacks, with at least one scale-up reporting measurable performance gains in industrial pilots; success metrics focus on deployed commercial use cases, patents and workforce readiness.
