EU Prepares Quantum Act to Boost Quantum Industry

The European Commission plans to introduce the Quantum Act by the end of 2026 to accelerate research, commercialization, and manufacturing capacity in quantum technologies. During European Parliament discussions, stakeholders identified key challenges including fragmented investments, infrastructure gaps, a shortage of skilled professionals, and poor cross-border coordination. The Commission intends for the act to serve primarily as a development framework for the industry rather than a set of restrictive regulations.
