Quantum City, set for Hesaraghatta 25–30 km northwest of Bengaluru, could boost the region’s property market, experts suggest. Published on: Sep 8, 2025 2:47 PM IST By HT Real Estate News Share
Karnataka plans Quantum City (Q-City), a new center for quantum research, making, and learning. This initiative aims to advance India in global quantum technology. The ₹1,000 crore Karnataka Quantum Mission aims for a $20 billion quantum economy by 2035. Karnataka seeks to become the Quantum Capital of Asia.
The project site is Hesaraghatta, about 25–30 km from Bengaluru. It’s also 30 km from Kempegowda International Airport. The government has provided 6.17 acres for the project’s start.
Real estate experts think this plan will boost infrastructure in northwest Bengaluru. This area has lagged behind the city’s tech hubs. Projects are appearing along Hessarghatta Main Road. This road has good links and is near the airport.
Experts told HT.com that buyers might see plots as investments. They might also consider them for second homes.
