Oracle and Quantinuum have agreed a multi-year partnership under which Quantinuum will physically install its Helios quantum computer inside a US Oracle Cloud Infrastructure AI data centre, and Oracle will sell access to it as a managed OCI service. No…
Six days ago, IBM agreed to buy a quantum-computing lab that builds a kind of qubit IBM does not. This week, the lab showed the world why. HRL Laboratories published a result in Nature on Wednesday: a silicon quantum processor that, in effect, runs its…
ZuriQ, a Swiss quantum computing company spun out of ETH Zürich, has raised $25.5 million in a seed round to scale the trapped-ion processors it is building on a new two-dimensional architecture. The money builds on the $4.2 million pre-seed round the …
France’s Pasqal is heading to Nasdaq at a $2bn valuation, roughly 100 times its revenue. Its own filings spell out two things. Quantum computing might never pay off. And Paris can veto who owns the company. Pasqal, the French quantum-computing firm, is…
Two executive orders set a research-grade target, push the post-quantum cryptography deadline to 2031, and tie $2bn in grants to government equity stakes. President Donald Trump signed two executive orders on quantum computing on 22 June 2026, the firs…
PsiQuantum has broken ground on a facility in Moreton Bay, Queensland, where it plans to build and deploy what it calls the world’s first utility-scale, fault-tolerant quantum computer. The site will eventually hold tens of thousands of photonic quantu…
IQM Quantum Computers, the Finnish maker of superconducting quantum systems, has appointed Barbara Venneman to its board of directors as the company approaches what would be the first Nasdaq listing by a European quantum computing company. Venneman cur…
The marketed range was $53 to $55. Quantinuum priced at $60. That gap, the willingness of investors to pay above what the bankers asked, is the real news in the Honeywell-backed company’s initial public offering, which raised $1.68bn and set a valuatio…
Most quantum-computing startups ask the world to build them an entirely new industry: exotic materials, bespoke fabrication, supply chains that do not yet exist. Quobly is making a quieter bet. The Grenoble company thinks the path to a useful quantum m…
Microsoft has unveiled Majorana 2, a next-generation topological quantum chip whose qubits are 1,000 times more reliable than those in the first Majorana chip introduced last year. The improvement is so significant that Microsoft has cut its timeline f…
