Quantum Computing Market Trends
Driver: Rising quantum computing investments in quantum computing technology
The quantum computing ecosystem surrounding quantum computing is expanding rapidly. This technology has applications in geophysics, medical imaging, and navigation systems. Governments of countries like the US, Australia, and the European Union are working on quantum computing initiatives and investments. For instance, in January 2023, the government of Canada announced a plan to invest ~USD 355 million in initiatives to develop quantum talent, advance quantum technology applications, and commercialize quantum computing.
Restraint: Stability and error correction issues
Quantum computing is one of the fastest-growing technologies in the world, but some restrictions restrict its development. The information available in quantum computing is complex and difficult to keep stable. Like in classic computers, the information is either 0 or 1. But in quantum computers, the quantum bits exist simultaneously in a superposition of both states. This condition makes them suitable for errors from environmental noise and hardware imperfections.
Opportunity: Technological advancement in quantum computing technology
Quantum computing is a growing technology that has the opportunity to make computing faster. These devices can perform valuable tasks but have a high rate of error. In short-term quantum computing, use cases will have a hybrid quantum operating model, a mix of traditional and quantum computers. In the short term, also known as the NISQ era, the revenue for quantum computing will be entirely generated from end-user industries and quantum computing research investments. Mid-term quantum computing is expected to witness many advantages over conventional computers. To achieve this stage, quantum algorithms with a high error correction ability are required. Long-term quantum computing requires a high tolerance for error correction and scalability. At this stage, the value will be added by the quantum hardware, quantum software, and service providers.
Challenge: Shortage of quantum computing technology skilled working professional
Quantum computing technology is a growing technology. Technology development requires specialists who know quantum mechanics and have computer science and mathematics expertise. The professional should also understand quantum programming and machine learning, among other technologies, to keep up with the fast-growing field of quantum computing. Companies working in the field of quantum computing face the challenge of hiring talent with a good understanding of the technology, and hence, it is one of the significant quantum computing challenges for the market.
