Alberto Gómez Saiz, Principal IC Engineer at Quantum Motion has been awarded a prestigious Industrial Fellowship by the Royal Commission for the Exhibition of 1851. Alberto’s fellowship will enable research into the integration of quantum components into traditional microchip technology at Quantum Motion with PhD support from Imperial College London.

Ephos, the leading producer of glass-based photonic chips, today announces a major expansion of its operations: an $8.5M funding round and the opening of a state-of-the-art research and manufacturing facility in Milan, the world’s first dedicated to producing glass-based quantum photonic circuits.

Bluefors, the world leader in manufacturing cryogenic measurement systems for quantum technology, held the opening for its expanded production facility in Syracuse, New York. This expanded facility will increase the production capacity for its Cryomech-branded cryocoolers, enhance its R&D operations, and enable Bluefors to begin manufacturing dilution refrigerators at the site – for the first time in the USA.

Xiphera, Ltd, a Finnish company designing and implementing hardware-based security solutions, announces a project for developing quantum-resilient Authenticated Boot and Hardware Root of Trust solutions for space-grade semiconductor architectures.

Quandela, the European-based quantum computing provider, inaugurates its first manufacturing pilot line for high-performance photonic qubit devices, aiming to accelerate the deployment of error-corrected quantum computers.

A recent study by a multi-institutional team of researchers presents a new approach to solving chemical simulation problems using quantum computing, potentially offering a more efficient pathway in computational chemistry. The study, published recently in the pre-print server ArXiv, proposes an innovative method that could significantly enhance the way chemical systems are simulated, addressing the longstanding issue of computational cost escalation with increasing system size.

Building on its more than 70 years pioneering the study of fusion energy, the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL) has added a new field to its research portfolio — quantum information science.

SemiQon, a Finland-based startup specializing in silicon-based quantum processors, has announced it has successfully manufactured and pre-tested a 4-qubit quantum dot array from the first production run at its manufacturing facility in Espoo, Finland. The new chips are now shipping to strategic partners around the world as a toolkit for further research and development. The aim is to help make building stable logical qubits easier and faster to accelerate the use of quantum computing for complex problems.

Vescent, the leader in Quantum 2.0 Technologies Enabling Commercialization, has closed a $5 million Series Seed funding round led by Corporate Fuel, with additional participation from Caruso Ventures.

Multiverse Computing, a global leader in value-based quantum and quantum-inspired computing solutions and the largest quantum software company in the European Union, today announced it has secured a €25M (USD $27.1 million) oversubscribed investment round.
