Welinq, a leader in quantum networking technology, has launched the first commercial quantum memory designed specifically for quantum data centers with world-record performance. Quantum computing is reaching a turning point: with more than 100 individual quantum computers deployed in dedicated infrastructures, the next challenge is networking them into scalable, high-performance architectures.

In a milestone that brings quantum computing tangibly closer to large-scale practical use, scientists at Oxford University Physics have demonstrated the first instance of distributed quantum computing. Using a photonic network interface, they successfully linked two separate quantum processors to form a single, fully connected quantum computer, paving the way to tackling computational challenges previously out of reach. The results have been published today in Nature.

HSBC announced today that it has successfully trialled the first application of quantum-secure technology for buying and selling tokenized physical gold. This achievement marks the latest step by HSBC in pioneering the protection of critical applications from potential future quantum computing attacks.

Toshiba Corporation, a leading innovator in technologies realizing quantum key distribution (QKD) for secure network communications, has announced two significant advances in essential technologies for establishing global-scale quantum networks: Large-Scale Quantum Key Distribution Network Control Technology, and High-Speed Quantum Key Distribution Technology.
