Horizon Quantum Selects Dublin for Second Quantum Computer Testbed with IonQ 256-Qubit Trapped-Ion System

Horizon Quantum is establishing its second quantum computer testbed in Dublin, Ireland, equipped with an IonQ 256-qubit trapped-ion system. This deployment at the company’s European headquarters aims to leverage Ireland’s quantum ecosystem and talent pool while advancing the company’s hardware-agnostic software capabilities through the Triple Alpha environment. The initiative follows a similar superconducting testbed in Singapore and aligns with Ireland’s Silicon Island National Semiconductor Strategy. Government support from figures like Minister Peter Burke and IDA Ireland CEO Michael Lohan highlights the strategic importance of this investment. CEO Dr. Joe Fitzsimons emphasized the step forward for both the company and Ireland’s quantum sector.
