The Global Quantum Technologies Market 2026-2036 Report Now Available, Profiling IBM, Google Quantum AI, Ionq, Microsoft & 350 Other Key Players
Dublin, Oct. 12, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- "The Global Quantum Technologies Market 2026-2036" has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The global quantum technology market is advancing from venture-funded research toward public capital markets, industrial-scale manufacturing and direct government ownership. In 2026, hardware company IPO activity included Quantinuum, Xanadu, Infleqtion and IQM, while IonQ reported second-quarter revenue of $80.1 million. Government participation also increased as the US Department of Commerce awarded $2.013 billion in CHIPS incentives and took minority equity stakes in participating companies.
Quantum sensing remains the largest revenue segment, supported primarily by defence and national security applications. Quantum computing is forecast to become the leading segment after 2030 as fault-tolerant systems progress toward commercial deployment. Through 2036, the quantum technologies market offers substantial growth potential but continues to face high execution risk. Key market drivers include access to public capital, sustained government funding, advances in quantum error correction and the expansion of foundry-scale manufacturing infrastructure.
The report delivers detailed analysis of the global quantum technologies market, covering quantum computing, communications, sensing, simulation, machine learning and batteries. It includes ten- and twenty-year forecasts by technology segment, end-use industry and region, supported by assessments of investment activity, commercial roadmaps, supply-chain requirements and workforce demand.
