"Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) system segment to hold the high market share during the forecast period."
Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) system segment will hold high market share during the forecast period. The market growth is credited to growing concerns over data security and threat towards traditional data encryption methods. This has let to increase in adoption of quantum networking solutions across banking and finance, government, and defense sectors. The industry participants are focusing on implementations of QKD systems and running quantum networking pilot projects to gain a competitive edge in the market. For instance, in March 2024, Toshiba Corporation (Japan) announced strategic partnership with SoftBank Corp. (Japan) to demonstrate QKD operations with optical wireless communication. The partnership aims to showcases that secure QKD networks can be deployed over wireless communication infrastructure. Such significant partnership activities will propel the QKD segment growth over the forecast timeframe.
"Market for Government & Defense segment is projected to hold for largest share during the forecast timeline."
Government and defense end user industry is projected to hold larger share during the forecast timeline. Quantum networking is done for the secure communication of classified information and national security in government and defense sectors. Quantum networks ensure that the communication channels can, in effect, be made immune to eavesdropping. QKD will enable the generation of cryptographic keys, which, by the very law of Physics itself, are safe against any form of computational attack, including those coming from the future quantum computers. This opens up a way to protect sensitive information, assure military communications integrity, and protect national secrets. In addition, quantum-secured military communications are supposed to be kept confidential and authenticated against advanced cyber threats; therefore, they become exceedingly important for secret defense operations and strategic planning.
"North America is expected to hold for largest share during the forecast timeline."
North America will occupy the largest share during the forecast period since The US is home to research institutions and innovation hubs of worldwide repute, leading from the forefront in quantum networking research. Universities like MIT, Stanford, and the University of Chicago, along with national laboratories such as Argonne and Los Alamos, are leading different cutting-edge researches in quantum communication and networking. Recently, The U.S. Department of Energy declared USD 24 million, in funding for three projects driving the research into quantum networks. The focus will be on scalable quantum network communications. The funding will go to three projects whose objectives are threefold: allowing distributed quantum computers, integrating precision quantum sensors, and giving rise to new network architectures and protocols that will realize improved quantum information flow and error mitigation.
