๐Ÿ’ฐ The Quantum Investment Landscape

Quantum computing investment surged from $450M (2018) to $3.5B+ (2024)โ€”700%+ growth reflecting market maturation. Venture capital floods hardware startups (PsiQuantum $665M, IonQ public via SPAC), governments launch national quantum initiatives ($1B+ US, โ‚ฌ1B EU), corporations hedge bets across platforms. High-risk, long-horizon capital seeking quantum advantage.

๐Ÿ’ก Investment Thesis

Platform uncertainty: Multiple qubit technologies competeโ€”investors diversify across superconducting, ions, photons, atoms. Timeline risk: Commercial quantum advantage 3-10 years awayโ€”patient capital required. Winner-take-most dynamics: Network effects and ecosystem lock-in favor early leaders.
