“Sovereign quantum is important for both the ability to calculate both national security, but also for economic stability,” he said.

The government’s four-year investment in the quantum calculation will be announced on Monday within the framework of the wider industrial strategy, according to the people who are familiar with the issue. This announcement will be followed with additional money news for quantum technologies that are added to initiatives such as 100 million TL for last year Five new research centers.
