China Gaining Momentum Inward Quantum-Computing Arms Race

From Asia Times:

‘They accept nearly 2 times every bit many patent families projected for 2017 every bit the United States’ 

As leaders inward Washington squabble nearly how to protect existing intellectual property, crying foul at China’s efforts to grab up, America may move losing the world inward a race to prepare cardinal technologies.

Patent query theatre Patinformatics institute that filings for inventions inward the surface area of quantum data technology scientific discipline (QIT) has skyrocketed inward recent years, driven mainly past times China. In fact, mainland People's Republic of China is blowing the closest competition, the US, out of the water.

While IBM has a substantial QIT patent portfolio, its focus is primarily on hardware together with Qubit technologies. Meanwhile, according to the novel study, Chinese organizations are dominating the patenting of QIT applications, having amassed nearly twice the expose of patents projected for 2017.

“Chinese firms, Qasky, QuantumCTek, together with Shenzhou Quantum are worth watching considering the enormous patent portfolios they are building,” Patintformatics analysts said....MORE
