American and European companies are making progress on solving fundamental quantum networking technical challenges

The quantum computing industry still hasn’t settled on a hardware standard and we’re still years away from commercial use. But in 2024, all the major vendors made significant progress in improving capabilites and reducing error rates, and investment hit an all-time high.

Secure quantum networks that use existing fiber to transmit entangled protons are a step closer to reality as three different teams in US, China and the Netherlands have figured out ways to build quantum repeaters.
