Abstract

Despite the fact that data science continues in a constant evolution, there are still many problems that are still impossible to solve due to processing issues, either due to the exorbitant amount of data collected, or related to the different types of data to be processed. Quantum computing in the last decade has experienced a significant boom which has allowed researchers to pose problems that until now were impossible to solve in the classical paradigm. Quantum computing promises gains by solving how we solve these challenging computational problems. Currently, creating added value and achieving new experiences for the consumer, enhanced with it combination with artificial intelligence and machine learning, being a determining factor to promote business competitive advantage. This article aims to assess the impact of quantum computing on businesses competitive advantage, through a qualitative bibliographic analysis. In this context, an extensive research was carried out in this area on Web of Science and Scopus for the period 2016–2021. The survey covers 162 papers selected for this study, 92 from Scopus and 70 from Web of Science.
