The National Quantum Strategy is the Australian Government’s plan to grow the quantum industry in Australia.
The strategy sets out a long-term vision for how Australia will take advantage of the opportunities of quantum technologies.
Through the strategy we will:
- invest in, connect and grow Australia’s quantum research and industry to compete with the world’s best
- drive commercialisation through new programs to incentivise the continued growth of quantum use cases
- create pipelines for investment in industry-ready quantum technologies through the National Reconstruction Fund
- support new quantum infrastructure to ensure it meets the Australian industry’s needs now and into the future
- cement Australia as the world’s top destination for quantum talent
- strengthen Australia’s international partnerships and influence as well as opportunities for Australian quantum companies
- champion responsible innovation and ensure the growth of Australia’s quantum industry supports economic prosperity while safeguarding our national interests.
