Quantum computer by 2026

German government allocates 3 billion euros to create a quantum computer

A quantum computer to be built by 2026 will have a capacity of at least 100 qubits. Funding for the device includes 2.2 billion euros split among several German government ministries, including 1.37 billion euros for the research ministry. National research institutes will receive another 800 million euros.

The project is part of a new initiative to make Germany competitive with countries that have already built or are taking steps to build such a device. It is hoped that the cash will boost the German economy and propel the country to first place in the European Union.
