The Yogi Adityanath-led Uttar Pradesh government is planning to launch a dedicated State Quantum Mission to promote research, innovation and technological capabilities in quantum computing and other emerging technologies, as part of its broader efforts to strengthen the state's deep-tech ecosystem.
The announcement was made by Alok Kumar, Principal Secretary, Department of IT and Electronics, Uttar Pradesh, at the ETGovernment AI Vision Conclave held in Lucknow in October 2026.
The proposed mission is expected to complement the state's efforts to build infrastructure and provide institutional support for startups, researchers and industry players working in frontier technologies.
The initiative will be supported by the proposed U-Hub initiative, under which the state plans to establish two dedicated centres in Noida and Lucknow.
The Uttar Pradesh Cabinet approved the establishment of these centres in August 2026, marking a significant step towards developing a structured deep-tech ecosystem.
According to the Uttar Pradesh Startup Mission, the Noida centre will focus on frontier technologies such as quantum and advanced computing, semiconductor design, robotics and defence technologies.
The Lucknow centre, meanwhile, will concentrate on applied artificial intelligence, healthcare technologies, GovTech and other emerging technology applications.
Both centres are envisaged as platforms for fostering collaboration among startups, research institutions and industry stakeholders.
They will facilitate incubation, mentorship and access to technology infrastructure to support innovation and the development of technology-led enterprises.
