Not investment advice. Muhabbit scores how much a story may matter, not which way to trade.

Turkey’s Industry and Technology Minister Mehmet Fatih Kacır announced that the country’s largest quantum computer will be installed under TÜBİTAK, the national science and technology research agency. The system, a 54-qubit IQM Radiance, is scheduled to enter service in 2027. The move signals Ankara’s push to build domestic quantum computing capacity through a state-backed research institution rather than relying solely on foreign platforms. Watch for procurement details and budget allocations involving TÜBİTAK and Finnish quantum hardware maker IQM, along with any follow-on plans for a domestic quantum ecosystem.
