PsiQuantum has successfully completed the research & development viability phase of the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency's (DARPA) Utility-Scale Quantum Computing program and is now entering the validation phase of the program. In this final phase, DARPA will evaluate PsiQuantum’s utility scale system design, component and system performance to specification, and application use cases and economic utility. This next and final phase of work marks another significant milestone in PsiQuantum's roadmap to develop the world’s first utility-scale, fault-tolerant quantum computers on the fastest timeline possible.

Broadcom Inc. today announced an industry-first — the new, innovative Emulex Secure Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapters (HBA) — a cost-effective, easy-to-manage solution that encrypts all data as it moves between servers and storage.

ID Quantique (IDQ), a global leader in Quantum-Safe solutions and Quantum Communications, today announced that its high-performance Clavis XG series, has become the first product of its class globally to receive an official national security approval from South Korea’s National Intelligence Service (NIS).

Tachyum today announced that it has ported all four of the National Institute of Standards and Technology’s (NIST) quantum-safe algorithms across Prodigy software distributions to ensure data center deployments leveraging the company’s universal processor are quantum-resistant and future-proofed for data security.

the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Technology Transitions proudly announced an expansion to the Quantum in Space Collaboration, featuring an additional five signatories of support. The additional new signatories include Boeing, Axiom Space, USRA, Vescent, and Qrypt. Blue Origin is also currently reviewing the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU). This is the second round of signatories, joining Infleqtion, Accenture, and Nebula, demonstrating the ongoing commitment and collaboration between the public and private sectors in fostering disruptive quantum technologies and building a space economy.

In a new paper in Nature Photonics, researchers at the University of Pennsylvania School of Engineering and Applied Science (Penn Engineering) describe the creation of a novel photonic switch that overcomes this size-speed tradeoff. And at just 85 by 85 micrometers, the new switch’s units are smaller than a grain of salt.

Retelit, Italy's leading B2B telecommunications company, together with Telebit, a specialized system integrator in telecommunications, digital solutions, and e-mobility, and ThinkQuantum, a University of Padua spin-off offering cybersecurity solutions and quantum communication systems, has successfully completed a trial for the application of Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) as a method for encrypting data transmitted over fiber optic cables.

Jij Inc. (Headquarters: Tokyo, Japan; CEO: Yu Yamashiro) and ORCA Computing Limited (Headquarters: London, United Kingdom; CEO: Richard Murray) are pleased to announce the establishment of a strategic partnership in quantum computing technology, marking a pioneering collaboration between Japan and the UK.

Aeluma, Inc., a semiconductor company specializing in high-performance, scalable technologies for mobile, automotive, AI, defense and aerospace, communication and quantum computing, today announced it has been awarded a contract by NASA to develop quantum dot photonic integrated circuits (PICs) on silicon. This advanced technology targets next-generation space and aerospace applications, enabling capabilities such as free-space laser communication, autonomous navigation, and precision sensing.

SemiQon, an emerging leader in the field of quantum computing hardware, today announces the launch of the world’s first transistor capable of functioning efficiently in cryogenic conditions. These devices will play a crucial role in addressing the critical challenge of scaling today’s quantum computers to fault-tolerant levels and unlocking the full potential of quantum for corporate users, governments and other key stakeholders. The transistors can also be mass produced using existing CMOS fabs, with no new infrastructure required.
