Guest Post by By Itamar Sivan, CEO and Co-Founder, Quantum Machines
For the past decade, quantum computing has often been framed as a race for better, more stable qubits, lower error rates, and larger-scale systems. But after spending years working across the global quantum ecosystem, I have become convinced that the defining factor in this industry will not be hardware alone. It will be people.

This piece presents a compelling case for the human and systemic dimensions of quantum computing, shifting focus from hardware-centric competition to the cultivation of talent and collaborative ecosystems. The strongest version of this narrative highlights a critical truth: complex technologies like quantum computing cannot advance in isolation. The emphasis on Europe’s emerging hubs—Delft in particular—underscores how geographic clustering of expertise, capital, and infrastructure creates a mul...
