AmpliTech Group, Inc., a designer, developer, and manufacturer of state-of-the-art signal processing components for satellite, Public and Private 5G, and other communications networks, including the design of complete 5G/6G systems and a global distributor of packages and lids for integrated circuits assembly, proudly announces the successful development and deployment of its proprietary low-noise cryogenic High Electron Mobility Transistor (HEMT) amplifiers. These state-of-the-art amplifiers play a critical role in enabling quantum computers to operate efficiently at extremely low temperatures of 4 Kelvin (-452°F), a prerequisite for high-fidelity quantum operations.

Israel’s first domestically built quantum computer, utilizing advanced superconducting technology, is now operational. The 20-qubit quantum computer was developed under the leadership of the Israel Innovation Authority, Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI), Hebrew University, and the university’s technology transfer company, Yissum. This collaboration established a superconductor-based quantum computer infrastructure alongside a robust development and integration environment. These advancements mark a strategic knowledge foundation for Israel, supporting both defense and civilian applications.

SEALSQ Corp ("SEALSQ" or "Company"), a company that focuses on developing and selling Semiconductors, PKI and Post-Quantum technology hardware and software products, today announced the integration of its advanced Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) technology to secure electronic identities and documents via a strategic initiative, developed in collaboration with WISeID.COM developed by SEALSQ’s parent company, WISeKey International Holding Ltd. This integration is set to redefine the landscape of identity protection, ensuring long-term security for documents such as electronic ID (eID) cards, which typically remain in use for over a decade.

Researchers at the University of Waterloo’s Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC) have found that quantum algorithms could speed up generative artificial intelligence (AI) creation and usage

Algorithmiq, a team pioneering the integration of quantum computing, artificial intelligence (AI), and super-computing to solve complex problems in the Healthcare and Life Sciences, and QuEra Computing, the leader in neutral-atom quantum computing, today announced that Algorithmiq has joined the QuEra Quantum Alliance Partner Program.

A new consortium consisting of ParityQC, DESY, eleQtron and the DLR Quantum Computing Initiative (DLR QCI) has successfully qualified for funding in the framework of the “Quantum Computing Funding Initiative” of the Hamburg Investment and Development Bank (IFB Hamburg). In the HQML (Hamburg Full Stack Quantum Machine Learning) project, the companies and DESY are working together with the DLR QCI to develop a full stack quantum solution for image data processing. The consortium will cover the entire chain of innovation, from the specific application field to the development of the required novel algorithms. This is unique in Hamburg so far, and HQML is one of the first projects of its kind in Germany and worldwide.

Airbus and BMW Group have pushed quantum computing forward another step to leverage its significant potential for future mobility solutions. At Q2B, the companies have unveiled the winners of the Quantum Computing Challenge, an international initiative to identify and mature quantum solutions for the most promising mobility applications.

Pasqal, a global leader in neutral atom quantum computing, has today announced an ambitious partnership with Riverlane, a frontrunner in quantum error correction (QEC) technology, to accelerate the race towards fault-tolerant quantum computing – a critical milestone, where errors are corrected in real time, for unleashing the full potential of quantum computing.
