Marin IvezicSwitzerland published its first national quantum strategy, and it reads like a refreshing antidote to the hype cycle.
No billion-dollar moonshots. No national champions. Instead: honest assessment of where quantum stands, a CHF 200-300M infrastructure bet, and a strategic wager that the world will need trusted neutral ground for quantum collaboration.

Switzerland Just Published the Quietest Quantum Strategy in Europe. It Might Be the Smartest.
The Swiss Quantum Commission just released Switzerland's first comprehensive quantum strategy. For a national quantum strategy, it didn't arrive with the usual fanfare we got used to. No press conference headlined by a prime minister. No headline-grabbing pledge of tens of billions in public funding. No promise to build the world's first fault-tolerant quantum computer by a suspiciously specific date. Instead, the 20-page document - authored by nine commissioners drawn from ETH Zurich, the University of Geneva, IBM Research, EPFL, and other leading Swiss institutions - reads more like a lucid strategic memo from people who actually understand the technology.
