Europe Quantum Computing Market Trends

Huge Investments from Public and Private Sector to Boost Product Demand

Europe is gradually recognizing the opportunity and investing funds in quantum technologies as the U.S. and China threaten to dominate the Europe quantum computing market share. The long-term research and development initiative known as the Quantum Technologies Flagship aims to position Europe at the forefront of the second quantum revolution.

With an anticipated budget of USD 1.1 billion from the EU, the Quantum Technologies Flagship is determined to support the work of quantum researchers over a ten-year period. The flagship, which was launched in 2018, helped in the expansion of European scientific leadership and excellence in quantum technologies, following the Quantum Manifesto in 2016.

Europe Quantum Computing Market Growth Factors

Growing Adoption of Quantum Computing Technology in Drug Discovery to Drive the Europe Quantum Computing Market Growth

In recent years, investors have been paying a lot of attention to quantum computing. The pharmaceutical industry, specifically drug discovery, could be one of the earliest and most lucrative applications. In 2022, two European startups that use quantum computing to discover drugs have already raised funds: Algorithmiq, based in Finland, raised USD 4 million in February, and Qubit Pharmaceuticals, based in Paris, raised USD 17 million in June. In addition, in March, Swiss company Terra Quantum raised USD 75 million for its quantum-as-a-service model, which has pharma applications.

RESTRAINING FACTORS

Insufficient Digital Infrastructure to Hinder Market Expansion

Digitalization is a significant driver of industry expansion and enhanced competitiveness. However, when European industrial companies attempt to adopt digital technologies, they face numerous obstacles. Companies' capacity for digitalization is negatively impacted by lack of resources, digital skills, and know-how. The ongoing effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russian invasion of Ukraine have exacerbated these difficulties in recent years.

In 2022, the industrial landscape of Europe faced a number of significant obstacles. A period of economic turmoil was sparked by the COVID-19 pandemic. This was followed by Russia's invasion of Ukraine resulting in intensified supply chain crisis. By simultaneously making digitalization more necessary and more difficult, these developments have had contradictory effects on the digital transformation of industries. As a result, these factors are likely to restrict Europe market expansion in the near future.
