Bavarian state government sets the course for the further development of Munich Quantum Valley


At its cabinet meeting on 11 February, the Bavarian state government reaffirmed its commitment to Munich Quantum Valley (MQV), thereby setting a bold course for its continued expansion. This decision paves the way for MQV’s overarching mission: to develop and operate cutting-edge quantum computers for real-world applications, in close collaboration with visionary start-ups and leading industrial partners.

 

Building on the remarkable progress MQV has made since its inception three years ago, the initiative will further strengthen its unique integration of fundamental research, technology development, and education in quantum technologies. The ecosystem of research institutions, industry leaders, incubators, funding agencies, and the public will be further interconnected, fostering an even more dynamic and collaborative quantum landscape. To achieve this, MQV will establish more agile and efficient structures, forge strategic partnerships, and focus on its mission-driven approach.

Beyond advancing quantum computing hardware, MQV is intensifying its focus on unlocking the economic and industrial potential of quantum technologies. A key highlight of this strategy is an intensified collaboration with SAP SE, announced during the cabinet meeting. This partnership will accelerate quantum-driven start-up innovations, integrate quantum into enterprise software solutions, and further expand Bavaria's leadership in the global quantum ecosystem.

In addition to SAP, MQV is actively pursuing collaborations with companies across diverse industries. With these decisive steps, MQV is not only shaping the future of quantum computing and orchestrating an innovative ecosystem - MQV is reinforcing Bavaria's global position at the forefront of the quantum revolution.
