Quantum leap: France’s plan to win the future of computing

While France’s high-tech cheerleading can sometimes strike a nationalistic tone, it is not taking an isolationist approach to quantum computing. French researchers formed a coalition with their quantum colleagues across Europe to apply for money from the EU’s Quantum Flagship programme. That has already led one of Germany’s national supercomputing centres JUWELS to purchase PASQAL’s technology. “Participating in European projects allows for greater ambition,” Mehr says, “because we then receive co-funding from Europe. But it's also a good way for us to expose these French devices to European research and industrial communities. That makes things a bit more collaborative.” Spain’s Multiverse Computing, which is developing quantum computing software, and Finland’s IQM have also opened offices in Paris. That makes them eligible for support under the French quantum plan.
