RavvaKesari Posted August 2 Report Posted August 2 11 hours ago, andhra_jp said: Karnataka launches Rs 1,000 crore Quantum Mission, to set up Q-city near Bengaluru The announcement was made during the inauguration of the Quantum India Summit 2025 held in Bengaluru. The Karnataka government Thursday unveiled a Rs 1,000-crore Quantum Mission with a vision to transform the state into a $20 billion quantum economy by 2035 and establish it as the “quantum capital of Asia”. As part of this mission, it announced the establishment of Q-City (Quantum City) near Bengaluru – a futuristic integrated hub for quantum technology innovation, manufacturing, research, and talent development. The announcement was made during the inauguration of the Quantum India Summit 2025 held in Bengaluru, co-organised by the Department of Science & Technology (DST) and the Indian Institute of Science (IISc). Chief Minister Siddaramaiah and Minister for Science & Technology N S Boseraju laid out the government’s roadmap to foster quantum innovation and infrastructure across the state. “By 2035, we aim to create 10,000 high-skilled jobs and establish Karnataka as the quantum capital of Asia,” Chief Minister Siddaramaiah said. He added that a Quantum Technology Task Force will be constituted to guide policy frameworks, while the government will also launch a Quantum Venture Capital Fund to back more than 100 startups and generate at least 100 patents in the sector. The overall initiative is expected to create over 2 lakh direct jobs. Minister Boseraju said, “As part of this effort, our government will establish Q-City where world-class facilities will be provided. This city will integrate academic institutions, innovation centres, manufacturing clusters for quantum hardware, processors, ancillary units, and R&D hubs supported by quantum high-performance computing (HPC) data centres.” The minister said the state is already home to India’s first commercially deployable quantum computer, built locally in Bengaluru by a team of Kannadigas. “This computer is not just a proof of concept but a testimony to determination. Developed indigenously, it is already delivering commercial services,” he added. The state has already set up a Quantum Research Park at IISc Bengaluru, which has supported over 55 research and development (R&D) projects and 13 startups, while training more than 1,000 quantum professionals annually. To boost its activities, the state has sanctioned an additional Rs 48 crore in funding. Karnataka Thursday also announced plans to establish India’s first Quantum Hardware Park, along with four innovation zones and a dedicated quantum chip fabrication facility, expected to be operational by the end of this year. “Quantum chip fabrication capability will be operational by the year-end. This will enable domestic production of advanced quantum components and devices,” Boseraju said. The minister also emphasised the need for policy flexibility from the Centre to enable state-level innovation. “The Government of India has launched the National Quantum Mission with an outlay of Rs 6,000 crore. For its successful implementation, the Centre must allow Karnataka to lead with innovative and decentralised approaches,” he said, addressing DST Secretary Abhay Karandikar. To develop talent across the state, the science and technology minister said, Karnataka will roll out a quantum curriculum at the higher secondary level in both English and Kannada under its Stream Labs initiative. The state will also introduce quantum skilling programmes in 20 colleges, expand DST-funded PhD fellowships to 150 students, and take these programmes to tier-2 and tier-3 cities and over 20 universities. The roadmap is structured around five strategic pillars: talent development, R&D pilots, infrastructure, industry support, and global partnerships. Karnataka also aims to develop 1,000-qubit quantum processors and pilot real-world applications in healthcare, cybersecurity, governance, agriculture, and early disease detection.

Karnataka’s Quantum computing push is not just about Bengaluru, but about anchoring quantum-led innovation across emerging tech clusters in Mysuru, Mangaluru, and Hubballi, as the technology has the power to transcend metro boundaries to unlock entrepreneurship, advanced R&D, and high-value employment across the State, said Sanjeev Kumar Gupta, CEO, Karnataka Digital Economy Mission (KDEM). He was speaking at the Quantum India Bengaluru (QIB) 2025, held over two days to highlight Karnataka’s growing leadership in quantum science and technology. The State would soon have the most comprehensive quantum ecosystem, anticipated by many experts who spoke at the event on Friday. The summit featured 24 multi-track sessions across five thematic streams, from Finance to Arts. It also had participation from over 20 academic institutions, deep-tech startups, and research labs. Diverse speakers highlighted the importance of large-scale reskilling initiatives to support translational deep-tech growth across quantum computing, communication, and sensing (mostly in healthcare and surveillance) to develop India’s own quantum technologies. A poster showcase featured more than 41 research posters from scholars and doctoral researchers, providing diverse perspectives in areas such as quantum algorithms, hardware, and cryptography. Winners of the poster awards who each received a prize of ₹20,000, included Shuvarati Roy, Indian Institute of Science Education and Research, Pune; Kanad Sengupta, Indian Institute of Science, Bengaluru; Ayan Majumder, Indian Institute of Technology-Bombay; Purna Pal, Indian Institute of Science, Bengaluru. It event was jointly organised by the Karnataka Science and Technology Promotion Society (KSTePS) and the Department of Science and Technology, State Government, in collaboration with the IISc Quantum Technology Initiative (IQTI), in alignment with the National Quantum Mission.

andhra_jp Posted September 8 Author Report Posted September 8 Bengaluru to get India's first Q-City as Karnataka targets $20 bn quantum economy Quantum India Bengaluru Conclave: The state has set itself the target of building a quantum economy worth 20 billion US dollars by the year 2035. The Karnataka government on Sunday approved land for India’s first “Quantum City,” which will come up at Hessarghatta, on the outskirts of Bengaluru. According to Science and Technology Minister N S Boseraju, a total of 6.17 acres has been set aside for this ambitious project. The main goal is to promote cutting-edge research, encourage innovation, and support start-ups in the fast-growing field of quantum technologies, according to a report by The Times of India. The state has set itself the target of building a quantum economy worth 20 billion US dollars by the year 2035. The approval for the land, which was officially cleared on 3 September 2025, also fulfils the promise made by the state government during the Quantum India Bengaluru Conclave held earlier this year. Minister Boseraju described the upcoming Quantum City as “a historic milestone for Karnataka”. He stressed that it will attract investments and talent from across the world, putting Bengaluru on the global map as a hub for advanced research in quantum science. The city is expected to bring together different elements of the quantum ecosystem, academic institutions, research facilities, innovation hubs, and production units for quantum hardware, processors, and other related technologies. The project will also work closely with high-performance computing (HPC) centres, giving researchers and innovators the support they need to take quantum technologies to the next level. Alongside this project, the government has also allocated eight acres of land to expand the International Centre for Theoretical Sciences (ICTS-TIFR). This expansion is expected to further boost academic work and strengthen research in theoretical sciences, which will complement the larger ecosystem being built around the Quantum City. Quote
