Quantum leaps
The global quantum technology industry took a big step forward in 2025, according to a report released today by the Quantum Economic Development Consortium (QED-C). In its State of the Global Quantum Industry 2026 report, QED-C said the global quantum market reached $1.9 billion in 2025 while the global pure-play quantum workforce grew by 14%. It forecasts the market will grow at a 30% annual rate to reach $3 billion by 2028, and Nvidia plans to be a key player in that growth.
“Our AI leadership is going to directly accelerate the path to useful quantum computers,” Stanwyck said. “The same GPUs that are running the world’s AI can run the control plane for quantum hardware.”
