Open Quantum Design (OQD), a non-profit organization developing the world’s first full-stack, open-source quantum computer, has launched a collection of open repositories now available to the public.

UbiQD, Inc., the New Mexico-based leader in quantum dot (QD) technology and manufacturing, today announced the acquisition of substantially all assets of BlueDot Photonics, Inc. (BlueDot), including its groundbreaking perovskite-based quantum cutting technology. The deal also enabled UbiQD to secure exclusive rights to BlueDot's associated intellectual property, originally developed at (and licensed from) the University of Washington.

Open Quantum Design (OQD), a non-profit organization based in Waterloo, has announced the launch of the world’s first open-source, full-stack, trapped-ion quantum computer. This initiative is designed to accelerate global quantum research, break down barriers between academia and industry, and cultivate a collaborative ecosystem. OQD is partnering with industry leaders Xanadu, the University of Waterloo, the Unitary Foundation, and Haiqu to create a platform where hardware, software, and training are freely accessible.

Amidst the global race to establish and deploy useful and powerful quantum computers, researchers at a newly incorporated, Waterloo-based non-profit are taking a different approach. The team at Open Quantum Design (OQD) believes the key to accelerating advancements in quantum computing - including developing top talent - is to democratize access and open up its intellectual property for anyone willing to collaborate; and its four partners agree. Quantum heavy-hitters Xanadu, the University of Waterloo, the Unitary Foundation, and Haiqu are the first to join OQD’s innovative platform to spearhead a new, unprecedented degree of open access to full-stack quantum computing technology.
