The European Commission Will Invest €1 Billion in Quantum Technology Research

Quantum computers are doing their part when it comes to space exploration and cancer research and in Europe, there are big things expected of the machine. The latest project announced is a billion Euro deal to expand on current developments and to last for ten years.

The quantum is expected to match the European Union’s other major projects, the Human Brain Project, and the Graphene scheme. Quantum sensing, quantum simulation, and quantum secure communications are also included.





A Commission spokesperson has said that 2018 is the expected launch date, and the development will transform computing. Richard Feynman has been involved with Quantum computing since 1982 and David Deutsch – a computing pioneer believes that a quantum computer can work so much quicker and more efficiently than current computers.

The manifesto is due for release at a conference in Amsterdam in mid-2016 and claims are being made that these technologies will improve society and the economy. It has been hailed as a once in a lifetime chance for Europe to develop this Quantum flagship.

D-Wave in Canada claims that they have already developed quantum computers, but there has been disagreement regarding this. Many researchers argue that the machines are not suited to be classed as quantum computers although they are working alongside Google, NASA and the CIA. They are seen as an exciting development but are not considered the real deal. They are able to compete with silicon and have only been in existence for the last eight years.
