This Quantum Computing Weekly Round-Up highlights a busy week where governments and companies ramped up efforts in quantum security, navigation, and computing power. Key stories include new post-quantum tools at RSAC and significant funding for national quantum programs. The developments show the field rapidly moving toward practical applications.
Quantum Motion has delivered the first full-stack silicon quantum computer using CMOS technology to the UK’s NQCC. This scalable system integrates a Quantum Processing Unit with industry-standard software. It marks a significant step toward commercially viable quantum computing.
IonQ has delivered its first quantum computer, IonQ Forte Enterprise, to the European Innovation Center in Arlesheim, Switzerland. Operating at a record algorithmic qubit count of #AQ36, the system enhances computational capabilities and marks IonQ’s initial commercial quantum system in Switzerland. The partnership with QuantumBasel strengthens IonQ’s global data center presence and supports advanced research and commercial applications.
