Panel Discussion: Global Quantum Marathon: Can Europe Outpace the Competition?
summary
European Flagship exceeds expectations: public funding drives deployment of quantum infrastructures, integrates quantum processors into the supercomputing network, and seeds roughly one startup per project from a €120–150M program. A testbed quantum communications quantum backbone with satellites is already in development. Strengths are the largest technical workforce, photonics and diamond/NV sensing expertise; weaknesses are low private investment, fragmented national programs, IP control concerns, and lagging superconducting capacity compared with some non‑European hubs.
