IQM Quantum Computers (IQM), a company known for building superconducting quantum computers and Keysight Technologies, a leading provider of advanced design and validation solutions to help accelerate innovation to connect and secure the world have agreed to collaborate and signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to explore the advancement of a quantum computing solution and enable the development of high-performance computing (HPC).
Both companies will use their expertise in quantum computation and control systems to investigate the development of scalable on-premises quantum computers that could enable scientists and researchers to harness the power of quantum for HPC applications.
“Our goal is to provide our customers and potential users globally with access to various solutions, and this unique partnership with Keysight will enable us to create an industry-leading solution for HPC-compatible on-premises quantum computing systems,
Dr. Peter Eder, Head of Partnerships at IQM Quantum Computers.
With our strong position as the European leader in superconducting quantum computing, we will continue to build on our expertise to advance industry solutions and grow the ecosystem.”
Keysight provides innovative design and validation solutions that aid in the acceleration of innovation in order to connect and secure the world. Keysight’s commitment to speed and precision extends to software-driven insights and analytics that accelerate the development lifecycle of tomorrow’s technology products. Keysight brings infrastructure expertise to the collaboration, which includes the world’s first fully digital quantum control system (QCS), EDA workflow software, and world-class quantum compilation, mitigation, and error diagnostic tools.
While IQM offers complete access to its hardware and delivers on-premises quantum computers for supercomputing centers and research institutes. IQM provides a significant advantage to industrial customers through a unique application-specific, co-design methodology.
“We are delighted to partner with IQM to deliver an industry-leading, on-prem quantum computing solution to enable scientific workflows in high-performance computing,
Dr. Eric Holland, Director of Strategic Growth Initiatives for Keysight’s Quantum Engineering Solutions (QES) group.
With Keysight’s vast global reach, history of high-performance products, and strong quantum team coupled with IQM’s reputation and pedigree make for a compelling joint on-prem quantum solution to enable scientific computation.”
