National and regional programmes.
Programmes named in the briefs, with a primary link where one was confirmed. This is not a budget ledger.
United States · North America
US federal coordination of quantum research and development. The National Quantum Initiative Act was signed on 21 December 2018 and authorises NIST, NSF, and the Department of Energy programmes, with a National Quantum Coordination Office. The North America brief and the Learn page also describe a June 2026 executive order (EO 14413 in the brief) on workforce institutes, apprenticeships, and credentials.

United States · North America
DARPA programme to verify whether any quantum-computing approach can reach utility-scale operation — computational value exceeding cost — by 2033. It is separate from the earlier, now-complete Quantum Benchmarking (QB) programme. DARPA’s Stage B page (6 November 2025) lists 11 companies: Atom Computing, Diraq, IBM, IonQ, Nord Quantique, Photonic Inc., Quantinuum, Quantum Motion, QuEra, Silicon Quantum Computing, and Xanadu. The same page says Microsoft and PsiQuantum were in the final phase of the precursor US2QC effort, and that Google Quantum AI joined Stage A in September 2025.

Canada · North America
ISED strategy organised around research, talent, and commercialisation, with missions in computers and software, communications, and sensors. Company cards separately name the Canadian Quantum Champions Program (CQCP) awards — for example up to CAD $23 million for Xanadu and CAD $23 million for Anyon — which are not the same document as the strategy overview.

European Union · Europe
The Europe pages describe six procured quantum computers and a free access pilot that opened in June 2026, with monthly cut-offs from 1 August 2026, for European academia, public sector, and industry. Named systems in the directory include Euro-Q-Exa (IQM at LRZ), Lucy (Quandela at CEA/GENCI), Piast-Q (AQT in Poland), SOL (Pasqal at CINECA), and EuroQCS-Spain (Qilimanjaro at BSC).

European Union · Europe
EU research initiative since 2018. The Europe brief describes it as a roughly €1 billion long-term programme across computing, communication, and sensing, alongside the July 2025 Quantum Europe Strategy and a Quantum Act that was still targeted for 2026 at the cutoff.

European Union · Europe
European Quantum Communication Infrastructure. The Europe brief says all 27 Member States signed the declaration (since 2019), covering terrestrial and space segments for QKD and quantum-secure networks, linked to IRIS².
Official site
United Kingdom · Europe
Opened in 2024 at Harwell. Testbeds cited for Quantum Motion, ORCA, Aegiq, and Oxford Ionics / IonQ, with Riverlane, Nu Quantum, and Phasecraft as partners. Anchor of the Harwell Quantum Cluster. Sits under the UK National Quantum Strategy.
Official site
Netherlands · Europe
National initiative for the Dutch quantum ecosystem. The Europe brief records a National Growth Fund award of €615 million (2021), later topped up by about €273 million reported in 2024, across five hubs: Delft, Amsterdam, Leiden, Eindhoven, and Twente. The working site checked for this revision is qdnl.nl. quantumdelta.nl still appears in search indexes but did not complete a TLS handshake from the build machine on 3 October 2026, so it is not linked.

France · Europe
French Ministry of the Armed Forces programme for sovereign universal quantum computers. The France 2030 page says framework agreements were notified on 5 March 2024 to five startups — Alice & Bob, C12, Pasqal, Quandela, and Quobly — with a ceiling of €500 million over at least ten years, supported by France 2030. The same page says a 22 May 2026 acceleration raised the 2032 goal from 128 logical qubits to 1,000 logical qubits and doubled the annual budget. Those figures are the programme page’s own statement, not an independent audit.

India · Asia & Israel
Approved by the Union Cabinet on 19 April 2023 at Rs 6,003.65 crore for 2023–24 to 2030–31. Four thematic hubs named on the Learn page: computing at IISc Bengaluru with C-DAC; communication at IIT Madras with C-DOT; sensing at IIT Bombay; materials at IIT Delhi. The Learn page says seventeen startups were reported under the mission. DST’s mission page states intermediate-scale computer goals of 50–1,000 physical qubits over eight years — a mission target, not a delivered machine.
Official site
Singapore · Asia & Israel
Hosted at A*STAR and responsible for the National Quantum Strategy. The Learn page says nearly SGD 300 million over five years and five national programmes (computing hub, fabless foundry, quantum-safe network, sensors, and a processor initiative). An NRF parliamentary reply describes $295 million set aside for quantum research under the strategy in RIE2025. CQT at NUS, founded 2007, is the talent source the brief emphasises.
Official site
Israel · Asia & Israel
The Asia brief cites an Israel National Quantum Initiative on the order of ILS 1.25 billion. No single budget document for that total was attached in this revision. Separately, the Israel Innovation Authority announced on 20 July 2026 a call of NIS 100 million to establish a national quantum-computing R&D infrastructure integrating at least three processor technologies. That call is not a restatement of the ILS 1.25 billion figure.

Australia · Oceania
National growth centre stood up in 2024, led by Petra Andrén, as described on the Learn page. Sydney Quantum Academy is the graduate pipeline across UNSW, Sydney, UTS, and Macquarie. The Australian government’s National Quantum Strategy publication is the policy frame; that host returned a bot block rather than a 404 when checked, so the publication URL is linked but was not re-read in full for this revision.

New Zealand · Oceania
Research programme run by Te Whai Ao — Dodd-Walls Centre. The centre’s page describes a NZ$12 million MBIE Catalyst Strategic grant for 2024–2028, covering computation, networking, memories, and sensing. It is a research platform, not a national computer build. NZIAT’s quantum discovery phase was a scoping step, not an appropriation for a lab.
