We are witnessing a new industrial revolution, the quantum revolution
Quantum technologies are necessary at both international and corporate and institutional levels. This is illustrated by the European commitment to the launch of the 3rd Flagship (with an allocation of €1 billion over 10 years) and initiatives such as IBM Quantum, Google Quantum AI or Amazon Braket.
The technological evolution of quantum solutions fosters the promotion and development of these technologies in the Basque Country. These technologies, based on the laws of quantum mechanics, offer an opportunity for companies.
