A flagship initiative is Quantum House Denmark (QHD), which will be a physical hub where quantum companies can be co-located close to the research community at the University of Copenhagen. As part of QHD, the government is collaborating with the Novo Nordisk Foundation to establish test facilities. In addition, the government is establishing a European quantum fund within the Export and Investment Fund of Denmark that will support Quantum House Denmark and the NATO DIANA Deep Tech Lab - Quantum by addressing the need for patient long-term capital for quantum technology development. Over time, the intention is for the fund to mobilize private institutional capital equivalent to a combined fund in the billions.
Other key initiatives include increased focus on safeguarding Denmark’s critical infrastructure from potential challenges arising from quantum technology and enhanced guidance on security for the quantum ecosystem. International cooperation is also a key priority and the government will establish an international quantum hub with the aim of developing international quantum partnerships. This also comes with increased international presence and a strategic focus on attracting foreign companies that can bring knowledge, talent and capital to the quantum ecosystem in Denmark.
With the strategy, Denmark emphasizes the ambition to uphold its quantum legacy and becoming one of the preferred locations for quantum technology development globally.
