ORCA Computing has announced the shipment of its PT-2 photonic quantum system to the National Quantum Computing Centre (NQCC) in the UK. Building on the success of its predecessor, the PT-1, the PT-2 offers 40 qumodes at industry-relevant clock cycles, housed in a […]
Lockheed Martin, in collaboration with Q-CTRL and AOSense, has been awarded a contract by the U.S. Department of Defense’s Innovation Unit (DIU) to prototype a quantum-enabled Inertial Navigation System (INS). The system, called QuINS, uses quantum sensing technology to provide precise navigation […]
Infleqtion has been awarded $6.2 million by the U.S. Department of Energy’s ARPA-E to develop quantum computing solutions for energy grid optimization. The funding supports the ENCODE project, a collaboration with Argonne National Laboratory, EPRI, and the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL). […]
Researchers from the Quantum Internet Alliance (QIA), including teams from TU Delft, QuTech, the University of Innsbruck, INRIA, and CNRS, have developed QNodeOS, a programmable operating system designed for quantum networks. Published in Nature, this system aims to simplify the development of quantum […]
Nu Quantum, a quantum entanglement startup, has partnered with the University of Sussex, Cisco, and Infineon Technologies to advance the scalability of trapped ion quantum computers through Project HyperIon. Funded by an Innovate UK Quantum Missions Pilot grant, the project […]
ConScience AB has introduced two new quantum devices, QiB1 and QiB2, designed to advance superconducting qubit research and development. The QiB1 device supports versatile testing of single qubits, including fixed-frequency and flux-tunable qubits, while QiB2 focuses on two-qubit coupling studies, featuring both fixed […]
D-Wave Quantum Inc. (NYSE: QBTS) has demonstrated quantum supremacy on a useful, real-world problem, as detailed in a peer-reviewed paper published in the journal Science. The study, titled “Beyond-Classical Computation in Quantum Simulation,” shows that D-Wave’s Advantage2 annealing quantum computer outperformed the Frontier supercomputer at Oak […]
QuamCore, an Israel-based quantum computing startup, has unveiled a patented superconducting quantum processor architecture capable of integrating 1 million qubits into a single cryostat. The company, supported by $9 million in seed funding from Viola Ventures and Earth & Beyond Ventures, addresses the scalability […]
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has selected HQC (Hamming Quasi-Cyclic) as a backup algorithm for post-quantum encryption, supplementing the primary ML-KEM algorithm standardized in 2024. HQC, based on error-correcting codes, provides a mathematically distinct alternative to ML-KEM, which relies on structured […]
IonQ, a leader in quantum computing and quantum networking, has raised approximately $372.6 million through its at-the-market (ATM) equity offering program, netting $360 million in proceeds. The company sold 16,038,460 shares of common stock, bringing […]
