The report "Quantum Technology – Current Status in Denmark" concludes that quantum technology has the potential to transform industries and become a new area of strength for Denmark. But the experts point to a number of challenges and recommendations if it is to succeed.

Denmark has all the prerequisites to become one of the leading quantum nations – but only if action is taken quickly. That is the main conclusion of a report published by the GTS institutes, the Danish National Metrology Institute (DFM) and FORCE Technology, partially supported by Danish Standards.

Quantum technology has great strategic importance for global security, as it can be exploited militarily and also pose a threat to information security.

On the other hand, quantum technology can boost innovation across a wide range of fields such as computing, healthcare, artificial intelligence, and energy efficiency – and become a central transformative force for Danish industry.

The report maps the potential of quantum technologies

The report sheds light on the quantum technology ecosystem in Denmark and is based on an in-depth interview-based study conducted in collaboration between DFM (Danish Fundamental Metrology) and FORCE Technology. The study explores how future quantum technologies can be implemented – while promoting a robust infrastructure – in Denmark.

Significant advancements in these areas pave the way for future technologies. These technologies make use of quantum mechanical phenomena such as entanglement and superposition to achieve unprecedented levels of performance and functionality.

The development and application of quantum technology require a multidisciplinary approach that brings together physicists, engineers, computer scientists, and industry experts. As research progresses and quantum technology becomes integrated into everyday life, it is expected to become a key driver of innovation and economic growth, strengthening Denmark’s leading position in the field.
