Quantum communication, a subset of quantum information science, is dedicated to the secure transmission of information through quantum mechanical principles. Unlike classical communication systems that rely on classical bits for information representation and transmission, quantum communication utilizes the distinctive features of quantum states, such as superposition and entanglement, to encode, transmit, and decode data securely.
In the realm of quantum communication, product types encompass hardware, service, and software. Hardware includes the physical components and devices facilitating secure quantum communication, such as quantum key distribution systems, quantum repeaters, and quantum sensors. Security services, such as application security and network security, are utilized across various sectors including government, military and defense, telecommunications, banking, financial services and insurance (BFSI), industrial enterprises, and more.
The quantum communication market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides quantum communication market statistics, including quantum communication industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a quantum communication market share, detailed quantum communication market segments, market trends, and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the quantum communication industry. This quantum communication research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenarios of the industry.
The quantum communication market size has grown exponentially in recent years. It will grow from $0.93 billion in 2023 to $1.18 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 27.7%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to demand for enhanced simulation and modeling, growing complexity of automotive systems, rising focus on cybersecurity, collaborative research initiatives, regulatory pressure and emissions reduction, competitive landscape and market differentiation.
The quantum communication market size is expected to see exponential growth in the next few years. It will grow to $3.16 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 27.8%. The projected growth in the forecast period can be attributed to several factors, including the rising number of IoT devices, heightened demand for secure communication, expanded network infrastructures, and a surge in the adoption of communication techniques. Key trends expected in the forecast period encompass increased adoption, technological advancements, investments in research and development, partnerships and collaborations, market expansion efforts, regulatory considerations, integration with electric vehicles, emphasis on cybersecurity, market competition dynamics, and the commercialization of quantum solutions.
The increasing prevalence of cybersecurity threats is expected to drive the growth of the quantum communication market in the future. Cybersecurity threats encompass malicious activities aimed at compromising the security of information systems, potentially altering the availability, integrity, or confidentiality of data, or disrupting digital operations. Factors contributing to the rise in cybersecurity threats include increased connectivity, inadequate cybersecurity education, training, and research, as well as the failure of governments, businesses, and individuals to establish a more secure digital ecosystem. Quantum communication offers methods for detecting unauthorized tampering or eavesdropping on communication channels that are highly sensitive to disturbances. Any attempt to intercept or tamper with quantum signals would be promptly detectable, providing a higher level of confidence in communication integrity. For example, data from the Australian Cyber Security Centre in February 2023 indicated a significant increase in cybercrime reports, with 76,000 received in 2022, marking a 13% rise from the previous year. Therefore, the escalating number of cybersecurity threats is expected to fuel the growth of the quantum communication market.
Key players in the quantum communication market are actively developing innovative products, such as optical communication devices, to better serve customers with advanced features. Optical communication devices encompass various components and technologies within optical communication systems used to transmit, receive, and process optical signals. For instance, in August 2023, SKY Perfect JSAT Corporation introduced a quantum cryptography optical communication device featuring satellite-based quantum key distribution (QKD) and cryptography technology. This initiative aimed to conduct demonstration experiments between space and ground to establish a secure satellite communication network resistant to eavesdropping or decryption, even with advancements in computational technology.
