What we know

PROQCIMA is the French Ministry of Armed Forces' quantum procurement programme. It selects across all five French hardware modalities (neutral atom, cat qubit, silicon spin, photonic, carbon nanotube superconducting) with a target of two French fault-tolerant quantum computers ready for industrialization by 2032.

France treats quantum as a sovereignty issue. PROQCIMA is the most concrete expression of that thesis.

Editorial note

The Millikelvin covers the Colorado quantum ecosystem from the inside. Foreign organisations on this site carry stub profiles only, restricted to publicly reported facts. We expand a profile when the org is part of an active Colorado story, not as deep-dive coverage of foreign ecosystems on their own terms.
