VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland and IQM Quantum Computers, one of the global leaders in superconducting quantum computers, have completed and launched Europe’s first 50-qubit superconducting quantum computer, now open to researchers and companies through VTT QX quantum computing service.

Qilimanjaro Quantum Tech, in partnership with Do IT Now, is proud to announce the signature of the procurement contract of EuroQCS-Spain quantum computer for EuroHPC Joint Undertaking. Under this agreement, MareNostrum-Ona, an adiabatic quantum computer, will be hosted at the Barcelona Supercomputing Center (BSC), marking a significant milestone in the integration of quantum and supercomputing technologies across Europe.

Pasqal, a global leader in neutral-atom quantum computing, and the Grand Équipment National de Calcul Intensif (GENCI) have announced the experimental realization of a smart charging use case to successfully run energy demand forecasting on more than 100 qubits. In partnership with EDF – a major leader in energy transition – this project has demonstrated the potential of Pasqal’s technology in tackling forecasting and optimization challenges posed by the growing complexity of energy supply and demand as electric vehicle (EV) purchases increase.

The teams at ParityQC and the University of Innsbruck have made a significant step forward in simplifying the control of quantum computers. This advancement, detailed in the recently published paper titled “Quantum Optimization with Globally Driven Neutral Atom Arrays,” represents a scalable encoding for solving complex combinatorial optimization problems with global laser addressing.

Advancing Quantum Computing with practical near-term solutions via the Cloud QuiX Quantum, the European leader in photonic quantum computing hardware, is proud to announce the launch of Bia Quantum Cloud Computing Service, its first Quantum as a Service (QaaS) platform for quantum and hybrid computing.

Performance, scale, and enterprise-grade pillars further define IonQ’s unmatched and integrated approach to achieving commercial quantum advantage.

Q-CTRL, a pioneer of quantum infrastructure software to make quantum technologies useful, today announced newly published results that demonstrate a boost of more than 4X in the size of an optimization problem that can be accurately solved, shown for the first time on a cloud-based, utility-scale IBM quantum computer and outperforming competitive annealer and trapped ion technologies.

Pasqal, a global leader in neutral atom quantum computing, in partnership with Thales, today announced a major advancement within the AQUAPS project. This innovative project aimed to explore neutral atom architectures to solve optimization problems, with a particular focus on satellite planning.

IonQ, a leader in the quantum computing industry, today announced early results from its work with Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron (DESY) – a German-based research center for fundamental science – to run combinatorial optimization problems on IonQ Aria. The results demonstrate quantum computing’s potential as a more effective solution than traditional classical computing when tackling equations with multiple variables in a dense environment, such as a bustling airport.
