JLL Report Positions Quantum Real Estate as Emerging Sector with 240+ Facilities, $4B Pipeline from $70B Investment

A $70 billion investment wave is creating a distinct quantum real estate sector of research labs, data centers, and fabrication sites. More than 240 facilities already operate worldwide with a $4 billion pipeline. Unlike AI data centers, locations favor university ecosystems and specialized talent. Commercial quantum advantage is expected between 2030 and 2032 as hyperscalers prepare rack-scale systems.

Interlune Produces 99% Pure Helium-3 from Domestic Helium Using Cold Capture Cryogenic Technology

Interlune has demonstrated production of 99% pure helium-3 from domestic Grade A helium using its Cold Capture cryogenic technology. Supported by an AFWERX SBIR contract, the system could triple U.S. helium-3 supply if deployed across existing liquefaction plants. The process meets growing demand from superconducting quantum computers while proving separation methods needed for future lunar resource recovery. Nearly $500 million in purchase agreements underpin the commercial pathway.

Singapore Armed Forces Partner with IBM to Explore Quantum Computing for Mission Planning and Logistics Optimisation

The Singapore Armed Forces’ Digital and Intelligence Service and Defence Science and Technology Agency have partnered with IBM to evaluate quantum computing for complex mission planning and logistics optimisation. Engineers will develop quantum optimisation approaches while gaining access to IBM quantum resources. Parallel US efforts include DARPA’s ONISQ program and Air Force contracts targeting fleet routing, maintenance scheduling, and supply-chain resilience. Both nations emphasise early skill development and hybrid approaches. Officials note that broad operational utility remains years away while foundational preparation continues.
