The Race for Quantum Computing: Who will achieve a strategic competitive advantage … China, Japan or the US? (Amazon audio & ebook)

Colleagues, according to the Future Forward: Exploring Tomorrow’s report entitled “China's Quantum Leap: The Internet Revolution of 2024” the PRC has taken a major step forward in the race for quantum supremacy. If this claim is valid the implications for technological transformation are enormous.

For a deeper dive on this matter read “The Race for Quantum Computing” (Audible) (Kindle) that clearly defines the global race for quantum computing among China, Japan and the United States. Moreover, it will identify the impact and consequences of winning this technological race … along with the strategic advantages that await the nation that wins this competition. These advantages include positive innovations in science, technology and finance. In addition, the outcome of this high stakes contest will have an immeasurable impact on military and intelligence gathering along with cybersecurity and encryption. Quantum computing is the next big technological frontier, and the race to build the first working quantum computer is heating up. A quantum computer is a type of computer that uses quantum bits, or qubits, instead of traditional bits, which allows for faster, more complex computations. This ability has the potential to revolutionize industries from finance to pharmaceuticals, and countries around the world are vying for supremacy in this field. In this article, we will explore the importance of winning the race for quantum computing and the implications for the global technological landscape.


The race for quantum computing is not just limited to the private sector, however. Governments around the world are also investing heavily in quantum research and development. In 2018, the US passed the National Quantum Initiative Act  (Daphne Leprince - February 9, 2019), which provides $1.2 billion over five years to support quantum research and development. China is also investing heavily in quantum technology, with the government aiming to build a $10 billion quantum research facility by 2024.
