Q-CTRL has announced strategic product integrations with Wolfram, Aqarios, qBraid, Qblox, and Keysight to boost quantum research, commercialization and adoption from algorithm and applications development to hardware R&D.

Governor Jared Polis unveiled plans to invest $74 million in Colorado’s quantum ecosystem on Wednesday. The new refundable tax credit program aims to maximize the state’s competitiveness as a tech hub—including CU Boulder, already a global leader in quantum research and innovation—in order to win an additional $70 million in federal funding through a Phase 2 U.S. Economic Development Administration Tech Hub proposal. Colorado was designated this fall as a Quantum Tech Hub through the same program.

IonQ (NYSE: IONQ), a leader in the quantum computing industry, signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Seoul National University’s Center for Quantum Information Science Education (CQISE) to promote workforce development in quantum information, communication science, and technology. Today’s agreement is the latest in a series of South Korean initiatives aimed at developing the country’s burgeoning quantum computing industry.

SemiQon from Finland, and Canada’s CMC Microsystems announce a collaboration agreement to advance silicon-based quantum processor technology. Under the terms of the agreement, SemiQon will supply CMC with prototypes of its semiconductor-based quantum processor chips for research purposes.
