Live Events (You can now subscribe to our (You can now subscribe to our Economic Times WhatsApp channel Amaravati, The Andhra Pradesh government on Monday approved the Amaravati Quantum Valley Declaration, which will guide the state's efforts to advance quantum technologies and build a vibrant innovation ecosystem, including attracting USD 1 billion in investments by January 1, declaration follows deliberations held during the recent Quantum Valley Workshop in Vijayawada."The Government hereby approves the Amaravati Quantum Valley Declaration. This shall serve as a guiding framework for the state's efforts to advance quantum technologies and nurture a vibrant innovation ecosystem," said Bhaskar Katamneni, Secretary to the Government, in a declaration outlines shared commitments, a long-term vision, and strategic priorities for quantum research , innovation, talent development, infrastructure creation, and international reflects Andhra Pradesh's ambition to transform Amaravati into a globally competitive hub for quantum science and workshop hosted discussions on quantum computing , algorithms, hardware, quantum sensing and communication, quantum materials, capacity building, standardization, and a startup ecosystem for part of joint commitments from global partners, scholars, startups, industry leaders, and other stakeholders, the Amaravati Quantum Valley (AQV) will establish a Living Lab includes setting up QChipIN , India's largest open quantum testbed, within a year. It will integrate quantum computers, QKD fibre links, and deployable sensor platforms to support pilot projects across health-tech, Banking, Financial Services, and Insurance (BFSI), logistics, defence, and space will provide end-to-end access to quantum hardware, algorithms, tools, and expert support, housed within a dedicated tech park in collaboration with industry and academia to accelerate domestic R& January 1, 2026, IBM is expected to install its Quantum System Two at AQV, with a target of testing 100 quantum algorithms by the same time. By January 1, 2027, three quantum computers based on different qubit technologies-including superconducting circuits, trapped ions, photonic qubits, and neutral atoms-are targets include testing over 1,000 quantum algorithms annually by January 1, 2028, and achieving 1,000 effective qubits of total quantum capacity by January 1, boost domestic production, AQV will anchor the indigenous supply chain for qubit platforms, cryo-electronics, photonic packages, quantum chips, quantum dots, readout hardware like single-photon detectors, and control systems, to reach Rs 5,000 crore in annual exports by addition to talent development, AQV will spearhead the creation of a National Startup Forum with milestone-based VC funding and mentorship.A dedicated Rs 1,000 crore Quantum Fund and access to Living Lab infrastructure will support at least 20 quantum hardware and security startups in the next year and 100 by 2030, said the declaration. Startups will also benefit from regulatory quantum valley aims to attract a minimum of USD 500 million in investments by January 1, 2027, and USD 1 billion by January 1, 2029, focusing on quantum computing, chips, sensing, and Pradesh will also establish a Global Quantum Collaboration Council (GQCC) in Amaravati to align international standards, foster joint R&D, and promote trusted supply chains.A multi-stakeholder Amaravati Quantum Valley Mission Board will oversee governance, with working groups identifying use cases for quantum computing across in 2026, Amaravati will host an annual World Quantum Expo, with the goal of becoming India's quantum capital and a global hub for deep tech innovation by 2035.

Photo | Express VIJAYAWADA: In a decisive step toward establishing Andhra Pradesh as a hub for emerging technologies, the State government, in collaboration with the National Quantum Mission, unveiled the Amaravati Quantum Declaration at the close of the Amaravati Quantum Valley (AQV) Workshop. The event in Vijayawada brought together global minds, scientists, industry leaders, innovators, and startup visionaries to chart the future of quantum computing, sensing, secure communication, and ecosystem-building. At the heart of the declaration is the creation of QChipIN, poised to become the country's largest open quantum testbed. Set to launch within the next 12 months at the new Amaravati Quantum Valley Tech Park, QChipIN will serve as a platform for piloting quantum solutions across critical sectors such as healthcare, banking, logistics, space, and defence. The declaration lays out an ambitious timeline. By January 2026, it aims to install IBM's Quantum System Two. Within a year after that, three quantum computers using different qubit technologies are expected to go live, supported by the testing of 100 quantum algorithms. The longer-term vision is striking: AQV intends to reach a capacity of 1,000 effective qubits and conduct more than 1,000 algorithmic tests annually by 2029.

A.P. govt. and partners issue Amaravati Quantum Declaration
The Government of Andhra Pradesh (GoAP) and its Quantum Valley partners —IBM, TCS and L&T —have issued the Amaravati Quantum Declaration containing six joint commitments, at the Amaravati Quantum Valley Workshop held here on Monday. The six joint commitments in the declaration include living-lab infra, indigenous supply-chain acceleration, capacity building, investment catalyst and global collaboration Among the commitments is the creation of Living-Lab Infrastructure and the establishment of India's largest open quantum testbed – QChipIN - within twelve months. This will integrate quantum computers, Quantum Key Distribution fibre links, and deployable sensor platforms to enable pilots across sectors like health-tech, BFSI, logistics, defence, and space. Indigenous supply-chain acceleration As part of the project, Amaravati Quantum Valley (AQV) will be anchoring domestic production of qubit platforms, cryo-electronics, photonic packages, quantum chips, quantum dots, quantum readout hardware like single photon detector, homodyne detector, and control systems, targeting annual exports of ₹5,000 crore by 2030. Talent and capacity building The AQV will be establishing India's first Integrated Quantum Skilling Ecosystem to offer integrated PhD fellowships, engineer upskilling, and technician certifications, and empowering at least 20 universities in the State and 100 across India to run undergraduate, postgraduate, and PhD programmes in Quantum Technology by January 1, 2027. Startup and investment catalyst The AQV will be spearheading the creation of a National Startup Forum with Venture Capital-backed milestone-based funding and creation of a dedicated ₹1,000 crore Quantum Fund and providing access to living-lab infrastructure to support at least 20 quantum hardware and security startups in 2026 and 100 by 2030. Global collaboration and standards leadership The AQV will be establishing a Global Quantum Collaboration Council to harmonise international standards, pursue joint R&D, and promote trusted supply networks inpartnership with the National Quantum Mission. Governance and accountability An Amaravati Quantum Valley Mission Board will be constituted for identifying use cases in different sectors, and publishing a transparent dashboard of key performance indicators.
