The Africa Quantum Consortium (AQC) officially launches this week, providing the first pan-African coordination platform for quantum science, education, innovation, and policy across the continent. AQC has already established core infrastructure, including legal registration in South Africa, high-engagement Quantum Roundtables, the Quantum Circle for women and girls, and a State of Quantum in Africa white paper in the works. The organization is actively building long-term capacity, with initiatives such as the Africa Quantum Fund for startups, the AQC Academy for talent development, and strategic partnerships to shape global research and policy from an African perspective.
