Press Release

Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) Market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 42.50% through 2030F

The Global Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) Market is led by North America, driven by advanced cybersecurity infrastructure, regulatory leadership, and active adoption by large enterprises, during the forecast period 2026-2030F


According to TechSci Research report, “Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) Market - Global Industry Size, Share, Trends, Competition Forecast & Opportunities, 2030F, The Global Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) Market was valued at USD 297.82 Million in 2024 and is expected to reach USD 2493.97 Million by 2030 with a CAGR of 42.50% through 2030.

Governments worldwide have recognized the national security implications posed by quantum computing. Initiatives such as the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Post-Quantum Cryptography project, launched in 2016, are setting the stage for global PQC standardization. In 2022, NIST announced its first group of PQC algorithms selected for standardization, prompting industries to prepare for regulatory shifts. This regulatory momentum ensures that critical infrastructure sectors — including defense, finance, and healthcare — align their cryptographic measures with forthcoming quantum-resistant standards, thereby fueling demand in the Global Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) Market.

Beyond regulatory bodies, national defense and cybersecurity agencies are also issuing guidelines that encourage early adoption of PQC technologies. Countries like the U.S., Germany, and China have increased their funding for quantum-safe initiatives, understanding that delayed action could expose national data and critical communications to future decryption risks. Such governmental interventions not only create a market pull but also establish PQC as a compliance requirement, rather than just a best practice, ensuring a steady growth trajectory for the Global Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) Market.

Collaborative partnerships among technology companies, academic institutions, and government agencies are emerging as a dominant trend within the Global Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) Market. These collaborations are fostering a multidisciplinary approach to PQC development, bringing together cryptographic research, practical engineering, and policy-making expertise. Such partnerships accelerate innovation by enabling access to cutting-edge research and shared resources, which individual organizations may not possess independently. Universities are contributing advanced cryptographic theories, while tech firms provide scalable deployment platforms, and governments ensure alignment with national security objectives.

This collaboration trend also plays a vital role in establishing open-source projects and pilot programs that test PQC solutions in real-world environments. By involving a wide range of stakeholders, these initiatives help refine algorithms, address practical implementation challenges, and enhance market readiness. The success of projects like the Open Quantum Safe Project and partnerships under NIST’s PQC initiatives showcase how collaborative efforts can advance both research and commercialization. As these alliances strengthen, they foster a robust ecosystem that accelerates innovation and market adoption, significantly influencing the trajectory of the Global Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) Market.
