Introducing Clarion KX: ID Quantique’s (IDQ) Quantum Key exchange software platform enables a seamless future-proofing of the network security for enterprises, while enabling telco operators to offer new quantum-safe services that provide long-term security of data in transit for their valued B-to-B customers and users.

The Jülich Supercomputing Centre (JSC) at Forschungszentrum Jülich and the Siegen-based start-up eleQtron are together building a globally unique modular supercomputer consisting of a quantum module and a classical digital module.

Alice & Bob, a leading hardware developer in the race to fault tolerant quantum computers, and academic partners ENS de Lyon and Mines Paris – PSL, proudly announced the receipt of a €16.5 million ($17.8 million USD) innovation grant, a France 2030 initiative operated on behalf of the French state by Bpifrance, France’s public investment bank.

Forschungszentrum Jülich is getting another quantum computer. The Jülich Supercomputing Centre (JSC) has acquired a 5-qubit quantum system from the German–Finnish manufacturer IQM Quantum Computers. The IQM Spark quantum computer is scheduled to go into operation in July 2024 as part of Jülich’s JUNIQ quantum computing infrastructure and will be connected to JSC’s classical supercomputers. This gives researchers the opportunity to investigate how calculations on classical supercomputers can be accelerated by quantum computers.

Keyfactor, the identity-first security solution for modern enterprises, today announced the launch of its Post Quantum Cryptography (PQC) Lab on the Azure Marketplace, a free, SaaS-based sandbox, where users can generate and test quantum-resilient digital certificates in a safe environment, helping organizations kickstart their journey to quantum-readiness.

Material scientists from the University of British Columbia Stewart Blusson Quantum Matter Institute (Blusson QMI) will lead the development of a multi-million world-class crystal growth facility thanks to $5.8 million in investments by the Canada Foundation for Innovation (CFI) and the B.C. Knowledge Development Fund (BCKDF) announced today.

Keysight Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: KEYS) and Q-CTRL, a pioneer of quantum infrastructure software to make quantum technologies useful, are partnering to integrate key infrastructure quantum software to accelerate quantum processor development, characterization, and key proof of principle scientific demonstrations.
