Recommendations for the EU Quantum Act and the implementation of the Quantum Europe Strategy

26.11.2025 - Position papers

Europe faces a critical juncture in quantum technology, where strategic choices in the coming years will determine its global position. The continent has world-class research capabilities, strong industrial frontrunners and early infrastructure investments. Yet the global race is intensifying, and without a clear and bold strategy, Europe will fall behind.

Technology Industries of Finland supports the EU’s ambition to make Europe a global leader in the development, industrialisation and adoption of quantum technologies. The implementation of the Quantum Europe Strategy, unveiled in July 2025, and the forthcoming Quantum Act, expected in 2026, must deliver on three goals:

  1. Ensure leadership in quantum computing, software, hybrid HPC-QC integration and quantum-safe cryptography
  2. Accelerate industrialisation and adoption to turn research into economic and strategic value
  3. Safeguard Europe’s sovereignty and competitiveness through open but resilient ecosystems

These recommendations draw on Finland’s Quantum Technology Strategy 2025–2035 and the Critical Digital Tech from Finland policy brief. Finland has a lot to offer for the EU’s success in the quantum era. The Finnish ecosystem shows how quantum computing, enabling hardware technologies, software, cryptography and hybrid infrastructures can be combined with industry-driven research and public–private alignment.
