Report into UK quantum technologies investment

Notice Description

***** THIS IS AN AWARD NOTICE, NOT A CALL FOR COMPETITION ***** This procurement is being concluded following a competitive procurement exercise. Brief Description of Requirement. We would like a report by an individual or company with expert knowledge of quantum investment markets and a wide network in the investment community to examine the question: "What can the quantum sector, investment community, and UK Government do to support increased private investment into UK quantum companies, particularly at later rounds?" The report should examine the barriers to entry for investing in the quantum sector, explore innovative global approaches to stimulate investment into the sector, and set out key recommendations for government intervention.
