Qilimanjaro and QURECA Partner to Strengthen Quantum Education and Workforce Development

Industry / Press Release October 15, 2025

Barcelona / Glasgow, October 14 2025 -- Qilimanjaro Quantum Tech, a Barcelona-based full-stack quantum computing company, and QURECA Ltd, a global provider of quantum resources and career services based in the UK and Spain, have signed a collaboration agreement to advance quantum education, training, and talent development worldwide.

This partnership combines Qilimanjaro’s expertise in analog and hybrid quantum computing systems with QURECA’s educational platforms and training programs, creating new opportunities to connect industry, academia, and the next generation of quantum professionals. Together, both organizations aim to accelerate the transfer of quantum knowledge from research to real-world applications.

As part of this collaboration, QURECA will contribute its international experience in quantum training, professional certification, and skills development, while Qilimanjaro will provide hands-on access to its SpeQtrum QaaS hybrid platform—enabling students and professionals to engage directly with analog and digital quantum hardware.

“This partnership is a natural step for Qilimanjaro as we continue bridging the gap between quantum research and practical use cases,” said Marta P. Estarellas, CEO of Qilimanjaro Quantum Tech. “By joining forces with QURECA, we can help shape a stronger, better-prepared quantum workforce equipped to make meaningful contributions to the field.”

Analog quantum computers encode complex problems naturally within the system, resulting in more stable qubits and fewer errors at the circuit level. This bypasses the error correction required by the more common digital systems which use programmable qubits and quantum gates.  Using a hybridized approach of analog, digital and classical supercomputers, Qilimanjaro’s platform is designed to maximize the utility of each system to unlock real computational value years ahead of digital-only roadmaps.

“The collaboration between QURECA and Qilimanjaro is driven by our shared commitment to empowering individuals and organisations with the skills and knowledge required for the quantum future. By combining QURECA’s expertise in quantum, educational development with Qilimanjaro’s quantum computing technological innovation, we are building accessible, high-impact training pathways that bridge the gap between research and industry needs in quantum technologies.” said Araceli Venegas-Gomez, CEO and Founder of QURECA.

The collaboration will include joint educational initiatives, workshops, and content development focused on analog and hybrid quantum computing, with the goal of preparing the quantum workforce for emerging industrial and research needs.
