Unite
Africa’s quantum future is built together. AQC connects leaders, networks, and initiatives, inherently Pan-African. We eliminate fragmentation; we rise together or not at all.
Forging Local Strength.
Driving Global Impact.
Vision
To unite Africa’s quantum leaders across talent, research, partnerships, industry, and policy to build a powerful quantum economy, rooted in our shared strengths and focused on Africa’s sustainable future.
Mission
We drive Africa’s quantum growth by connecting diverse leaders, leveraging local expertise, and forging trusted global partnerships. Our aim is clear: to deliver quantum-enabled solutions for sustainable development across the continent.
“The Africa Quantum Consortium is not just timely—it is necessary. On behalf of the African Physical Society, I say this clearly: we stand with you. We helped champion the International Year of Quantum Science at UNESCO because Africa must shape the future, not watch it. AQC is now a legal force, and we will work shoulder to shoulder to make quantum Africa’s moment—not a borrowed story, but our own.” Prof. Ahmadou Wagué, President, African Physical Society and AQC Advisor
