NVIDIA today announced that Australia’s Pawsey Supercomputing Research Centre will add the NVIDIA® CUDA Quantum platform accelerated by NVIDIA Grace Hopper™ Superchips to its National Supercomputing and Quantum Computing Innovation Hub, furthering its work driving breakthroughs in quantum computing.

The NVIDIA Accelerated Quantum Research Center, or NVAQC, announced today at the NVIDIA GTC global AI conference, is where these developments will happen. With an NVIDIA GB200 NVL72 system and the NVIDIA Quantum-2 InfiniBand networking platform, the facility will house a supercomputer with 576 NVIDIA Blackwell GPUs dedicated to quantum computing research.

Singapore has launched a new initiative to leverage the strengths of classical supercomputers and quantum computers working together. At the opening event of the SupercomputingAsia 2025 (SCA2025) conference on 11 March 2025, Guest-of-Honour and Minister for Digital Development and Information Mrs Josephine Teo announced the new Hybrid Quantum Classical Computing (HQCC 1.0) initiative in her speech.

The German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) funds research into controlled quantum states of individual or coupled systems with its ongoing emerging talent program “Quantum Future”. Among the first selected projects, which kicked off in January 2025, is “qHPC-GREEN”, proposed by junior research group leader Dr. Werner Dobrautz, who began building his research team at the Center for Advanced Systems Understanding (CASUS), an institute of Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf (HZDR), only in late 2024. The computational chemist aims to model quantum mechanical systems at the heart of certain biochemical and physical phenomena that are relevant to environmental and energy challenges. The project running until the end of 2029 will combine quantum and high-performance computing to achieve this goal.

Classiq, a leading quantum computing software company, and Florence Quantum Labs today announced their collaboration on research to develop quantum-enhanced precision agriculture. This announcement comes as 2025 kicks off the International Year of Quantum Science and Technologies, underscoring the global significance of quantum advancements in addressing critical challenges.

Quandela, European leader in photonic quantum computing, announces that it has won the 2024 Quantum Computing Challenge sponsored by Airbus and BMW Group, with the support of Amazon Web Services, in the “Quantum-Enhanced Autonomy” category. This award was presented during the Q2B Silicon Valley event in Santa Clara, California (USA), in which Quandela is participating.

Dr. Hyang-Tag Lim's research team at the Center for Quantum Technology at the Korea Institute of Science and Technology (KIST) has implemented a quantum computing algorithm that can estimate interatomic bond distances and ground state energies with chemical accuracy using fewer resources than conventional methods, and has succeeded in performing accurate calculations without the need for additional quantum error mitigation techniques.

Calcul Québec is proud to announce today the official inauguration of MonarQ, its 24-qubit superconducting quantum computer designed entirely in Quebec.

A quantum computer will serve as an enhancement to advanced computing centers for dealing with advanced physical simulations and optimization problems, alongside CPUs and GPUs.

Alice & Bob, a quantum hardware manufacturer and leading QPU designer, today announced it is working to accelerate the integration of quantum technology into industry by introducing cat qubits into the datacenters of the future.
