QuEra Computing announces over $230 million in new financing for fault-tolerant quantum computers. Investors include Google and SoftBank Vision Fund 2, reinforcing commercial trust in neutral-atom technology. QuEra plans to expand hiring, boost production, and broaden partnerships across research, industry, and government.
Barcelona Supercomputing Center (BSC) has introduced the first quantum computer in Spain built entirely with European technology. This initiative falls under Quantum Spain, which links major research institutions to strengthen computing infrastructure. The system supports hybrid tasks by uniting quantum and classical technologies, opening new possibilities in science and industry.
LightSolver, a Tel Aviv-based company, introduces a laser-based computing approach that processes data at light speed. In partnership with Ansys, they tested methods to reduce computation times in LS-DYNA® simulations. Early results show promise for future on-premises hardware that could redefine high-performance computing workloads.
