Quantum investment surge reshapes real estate demand

by Released

JLL has released a report examining how investment, talent availability and infrastructure requirements are shaping the emerging quantum computing real estate market.

The analysis of more than 240 quantum facilities across 35 countries found private and public investment reached $9.3 billion in 2025, more than five times the 2024 total, although governments have provided approximately 70 percent of historical funding. According to the report, access to specialized talent and university research pipelines has become the primary factor in site selection, outweighing traditional considerations such as land and power costs. Demand is expected to divide between secure, on-premises facilities supported largely by governments and cloud-based quantum services delivered through data centers for commercial users.

JLL expects quantum computing to complement rather than displace existing data center infrastructure by adding a specialized, higher-value layer of computing capacity.
