A lasting capability in quantum technologies becomes possible not through a single institution, but through the coordinated work of complementary stakeholders. Because quantum computing, sensing, and communication span a broad spectrum — from scientific research to advanced manufacturing — progress depends not on the individual success of institutions alone, but on the strength of the connections among them. The Türkiye Quantum Platform addresses the national quantum ecosystem under seven core stakeholder headings: universities, research centres, industry firms, start-ups, international collaborations, infrastructure, and human capital.
Each of these headings assumes a specific role within the ecosystem and operates not in isolation but as a link in a single value chain. Knowledge produced at universities is matured at research centres; industry firms transform these outputs into products, supply, and operational capability, while start-ups rapidly carry early-stage ideas to commercial value. Infrastructure provides a shared foundation for this entire process, human capital is the common thread that feeds every stage, and international collaborations connect this structure to the global flow of knowledge and technology.
The role of the Türkiye Quantum Platform is to coordinate the transitions between these links, to facilitate need-capability matching among stakeholders, to reduce duplicated investment, and to follow the path from research to productisation in an integrated manner. In this way, the aim is for national quantum capability to develop within a sustainable and mutually reinforcing structure.
