1. L’Europe dispose d’une excellence mondiale en recherche et d’infrastructures critiques de semiconducteurs, mais sa capacité de production domestique ne représente que moins de 10% de la production mondiale.
   2. Face à cette faiblesse, l’Europe est confrontée à un défi majeur : les États-Unis, la Chine et l’Asie de l’Est dominent et contrôlent la technologie des puces qui alimente les économies modernes.
   3. Pour documenter cette situation, Neo Institute Europa a collaboré avec Euro Prospects pour créer une infographie cartographiant les hubs de puces en Europe.
   4. Cette infographie décrypte les enjeux stratégiques du secteur et positionne l’Europe dans la compétition mondiale des semiconducteurs.
   5. Le post soulève des questions critiques de souveraineté technologique, de géopolitique et de politique industrielle européenne face aux acteurs asiatiques et américains.

🧠 Un qubit ne suffit pas. Deux qubits intriqués non plus.
Ce qui détermine vraiment ce que vous pouvez faire avec un processeur quantique, c’est le régime dans lequel il opère. Deux mondes coexistent aujourd’hui, et on les confond systématiquement.
⚙️ NISQ — Noisy Intermediate-Scale Quantum (Preskill, 2018)
50 à ~1 000 qubits bruités, pas de correction d’erreur active. Algorithmes variationnels (VQE, QAOA, kernel methods). Démos académiques spectaculaires. Avantage exponentiel sur problèmes utiles : non prouvé.
🛡️ FTQC — Fault-Tolerant Quantum Computing
Correction d’erreur active via qubits logiques. Ratio actuel de l’ordre de 1 000 qubits physiques pour 1 qubit logique. Là — et seulement là — Shor, HHL sous conditions, simulation chimique exacte deviennent crédibles. Casser RSA-2048 ? ~20 millions de qubits physiques selon Gidney–Ekerå (2021).
Entre les deux : 4 à 6 ordres de grandeur d’ingénierie à combler.
Le débat “qui aura l’avantage quantique en premier” ne se joue pas sur le nombre de qubits annoncé en conférence de presse. Il se joue sur la fidélité des portes 2-qubits, la connectivité, et la viabilité du chemin vers le qubit logique — donc sur l’architecture physique : supraconducteurs, ions piégés, atomes neutres, photonique.
Le futur sera quantique. Mais le présent est NISQ. Distinction qui change tout pour un allocataire. 🚀

The Quantum Utility Map series represents the kind of research-driven analysis Applied Quantum brings to its advisory work. If you are evaluating which quantum use cases matter for your sector, building a readiness strategy, or navigating the PQC migration timeline, my team and I can help. We provide board briefings, quantum readiness assessments, vendor due diligence, and hands-on migration support.

Pasqal est un leader dans l'industrialisation de l'informatique quantique à atomes neutres, transformant des recherches récompensées par le prix Nobel en solutions concrètes pour l'industrie, la science et les gouvernements. Depuis sa création en 2019, Pasqal a développé des systèmes quantiques haute performance et des logiciels cloud, conçus pour relever des défis complexes en matière d'optimisation, de simulation et d'intelligence artificielle. 

Pasqal, headquartered in France, employs over 275 people and serves over 25 clients, including CMA CGM, OVHcloud, Thales, IBM (Pasqal is part of the IBM Quantum Network), and Sumitomo. Backed by more than USD 300 million to date in total funding from international investors, Pasqal seeks to accelerate the adoption of scalable, high-performance quantum computing worldwide. 

March 2026 Pasqal Investor Presentation

Transaction Highlights:

Following completion of the transaction, IQM’s cash on its balance sheet is expected to be in excess of USD 450 million cash at closing^(2) (including IQM’s existing cash), providing runway for continued broad commercial advantage:

• Approximately USD 175 million of cash held in RAAQ’s trust account (based on the current amount in the trust account and assuming no redemptions);
• Approximately USD 134 million in proceeds from a PIPE financing at USD 10.00 per share from leading new and existing and institutional investors, to close concurrently with the business combination, subject to the satisfaction of certain customary closing conditions;
• Expected USD 24 million in proceeds from the cash exercise of outstanding IQM warrants prior to the closing;
• Existing cash on IQM’s balance sheet of USD 172 million (unaudited as of year-end 2025); and
• The transaction values IQM at a pre-money equity valuation of approximately USD 1.8 billion.

 

Jan Goetz, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer, IQM, said: “We built IQM from the beginning for one purpose — to put working quantum computers in the hands of the people who will use them to solve real problems. Not someday. Now. Quantum computing is a science project no more. It is an industry where customers own, operate, and build on advanced quantum computers. That’s what IQM makes possible.”

 

Peter Ort, Chief Executive Officer and Co-Chairman, Real Asset Acquisition Corp, said: “IQM has built and delivered more on-premises quantum systems than any other competitor — to some of the most demanding research institutions on earth. This transaction will accelerate the growth of a company that has already earned its position in the field, with real customers, running real quantum systems, today.”

 

Sierk Poetting, Chairman of IQM’s Board of Directors, said: “Going public is not a change of direction but is rather an acceleration. The board stands fully behind IQM’s mission and goals to make quantum infrastructure as foundational and accessible as classical computing.”

 

The existing IQM shareholders will not sell any shares or receive any cash consideration as part of the transaction and all material IQM shareholders have committed to a customary lock-up agreement at close of this transaction.

The board of directors of both IQM and RAAQ have each unanimously approved the proposed business combination. The closing of the proposed business combination is subject to, among other things, the approval by shareholders of RAAQ and IQM of the business combination agreement and the satisfaction of other customary closing conditions.

Additional information about the proposed business combination, including a copy of the business combination agreement, will be provided in a Current Report on Form 8-K to be filed by RAAQ with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
The securities being sold in the PIPE financing have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or applicable state securities laws and accordingly may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration with the SEC or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and such applicable state securities laws.
This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy the securities, nor shall there be any sale of the securities being offered in any state or other jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to the registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or other jurisdiction.
