Pan Jianwei Wins UNESCO-Russia Mendeleev Prize of $250K as First Chinese Scientist for Quantum Communications and Computation

Chinese quantum physicist Pan Jianwei of the University of Science and Technology of China has become the first Chinese scientist awarded the third UNESCO-Russia Mendeleev International Prize in the Basic Sciences. The honor, announced 10 July 2026, recognizes his seminal contributions to large-scale secure quantum communications and scalable quantum computation. His team developed the Micius satellite enabling quantum key distribution and teleportation over thousands of kilometers and demonstrated quantum computational advantage. Each laureate receives €219,000 ($250,000 USD), a gold medal and diploma; the ceremony is set for 17 July 2026 in Paris.

Bull and Alice & Bob Sign MoU to Integrate Cat-Qubit Quantum Computers into HPC Environments

Bull and Alice & Bob have signed a Memorandum of Understanding to integrate cat-qubit quantum computers into high-performance computing environments. The agreement leverages Alice & Bob’s fault-tolerant cat qubit technology to enable hybrid quantum-classical workloads with reduced error correction overhead. Joint efforts will focus on low-latency interfaces, SLURM compatibility, and software orchestration to make these quantum resources accessible within Bull’s European HPC infrastructures. This collaboration accelerates commercial quantum-HPC solutions, supporting technological sovereignty and practical applications in materials simulation and optimization.
