Quantinuum announces Nexus is about to come out of Beta; Nexus is a comprehensive quantum computing platform designed to manage, store, and execute quantum workflows with integration into Quantinuum’s software and hardware ecosystem.

A team of physicists led by Johannes Zeiher, research group leader in Immanuel Bloch's Quantum Many-Body Systems department and co-founder of the MPQ spin-off planqc, has achieved significant progress in scaling up quantum computing platforms with neutral atoms.

Researchers at Paderborn University have now successfully constructed Europe’s largest sampling-based quantum computer. The ‘PaQS’ (‘Paderborn Quantum Sampler’) was built up as part of the PhoQuant funding initiative by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) by the researchers at Paderborn University with support from Menlo Systems, Fraunhofer IOF Jena and Swabian Instruments. The project is coordinated by Q.ANT, a German company specialising in industrial quantum technologies, and will soon launch a second, cloud-accessible sampling-based quantum computer located at Fraunhofer IOF in Jena. This project, with a funding of around 50 million euros, combines expertise from 13 science and industry partners to put Germany at the international forefront of photonic quantum computing.

IBM announced today the completion of its latest expansion of the IBM Quantum Data Center in Poughkeepsie, New York, which operates the highest number of available utility-scale quantum computers at a single location in the world. These systems are a part of the more than a dozen quantum computers offered to global clients via the IBM cloud.

PensionDanmark has invested 10 million dollars in the American quantum computing company Atom Computing, which is on its way to establishing itself in Denmark for the benefit of the Danish quantum environment.

oday Microsoft announced a game-changing collaboration to extend our lead in the race: together we will build the world’s most powerful quantum computer on a path to scientific and commercial advantage. Microsoft and Atom Computing have been working closely together to accelerate the development of fault-tolerant quantum supercomputers that can solve impactful problems too difficult for even the most powerful classical supercomputing systems.

Q-CTRL, the global leader in quantum infrastructure software, today announced that its performance-management software, Fire Opal, will be natively integrated into four of the world's most advanced quantum computing platforms — IBM Quantum services, Rigetti Quantum Cloud Services (QCS), Oxford Quantum Circuits (OQC) Cloud QCaaS devices, and Diraq’s Silicon quantum processors.

This research was propelled by Universal Quantum's vision to leverage the unique properties of trapped-ions, and enable them to be shuttled over long distances for two-qubit operations with minimal fidelity loss – contributing to refined connectivity and therefore facilitating scaling.

Atom Computing’s highly scalable neutral atom technology allows the company to race towards building the first fault-tolerant quantum computers and achieve larger numbers of qubits with each generation of its quantum computing platforms – at a rate of 10x increase per generation.

Quantinuum is excited to introduce the beta availability of Quantinuum Nexus, the company’s comprehensive quantum computing platform. Nexus is built to simplify quantum computing workflows with its expert design and full-stack support. Quantinuum is inviting quantum users to apply for beta availability; accepted users can work closely with Quantinuum on how Nexus can be adopted and customized for you.
