The United States is making one of its boldest technology bets in decades, committing $2 billion to accelerate the quantum computing industry through a sweeping package of grants and government equity stakes in nine companies. The move reflects growing urgency in Washington to secure leadership in what many view as
The UK is building quantum advantage not through isolated breakthroughs, but through a coordinated national ecosystem linking government, universities, investors, startups, and industry. For years, quantum technology was treated as a scientific moonshot — a field dominated by theoretical research, national prestige, and long-term promises. The United Kingdom is now
By Troels Askerud, Founding Partner, Bohrealis and Dr. Owen Lozman, Managing Partner, 55 North For decades, the environmental movement has framed the future through sacrifice, regulation, and incremental transition. But a new era is emerging — one defined not only by sustainability, but by transformative technological capability. At Earthx2026 in
The long-promised quantum revolution is no longer theoretical. It is arriving—fast, unevenly, and with consequences that extend far beyond the technology sector. A new report from McKinsey & Company signals a decisive shift: quantum computing has reached a commercial tipping point, transitioning from experimental promise to real-world economic force. From
By Peter Winther-Schmidt and Troels Askerud, Founding Partners of Bohrealis There are moments in history when a field of science quietly reshapes the world. Then there are moments when it begins to scale. We are now living in the latter. The first quantum revolution gave us semiconductors, lasers, and MRI
In the quiet laboratories of Europe, a technological revolution is accelerating—one that could reshape global power, redefine industries, and determine who leads the next era of innovation. The race is quantum computing, and for the first time in decades, Europe may have a credible path to the front. A High-Stakes
