Summary

  • IsraeliQuantum computing firm Quantum Machines (QM) has cut the time to calibrate a quantum computer from hours to under ten minutes, releasing its Qualibrate system that works across platforms.
  • The open-source framework addresses one of the sector’s most scaling issues, with QM’s CTO, Yonatan Cohen, stating that calibration time and calibration quality often conflicted with each other.
  • The launch follows the company’s $170m raise in November, which will be used to help increase the adoption of quantum computing, with the firm developing an ecosystem where researchers – both in academia and industry – can instantly leverage each other’s advances.
  • The news comes after the Dutch quantum computing firm Qu & Co last week launched its platform for simulating molecules to enable more discoveries and breakthroughs in chemistry and materials science.
