Quantum experts join forces in ‘SupremeQ’ project
Initiative aims to accelerate development of photonic quantum computing technologies
ORCA Computing, Pixel Photonics, Sparrow Quantum, and the Niels Bohr Institute (NBI) are collaborating on the Eurostars project 'SupremeQ.'
The initiative brings together quantum experts from the UK, Germany, and Denmark with a shared goal of accelerating the development and commercialisation of photonic quantum computing technologies to deliver quantum advantage.
Supported by Eurostars, a European funding program dedicated to assisting R&D-performing SMEs, SupremeQ draw upon single-photon sources from Sparrow Quantum and NBI, single-photon detectors from Pixel Photonics, and full-stack photonic quantum computing system architecture from ORCA Computing.
By uniting efforts, the SupremeQ consortium aims to develop innovations in performance, packaging, and system integration.
"The advancements made possible through the SupremeQ project represent a significant leap forward in quantum computing technology," stated Nicolai Walter, CEO of Pixel Photonics. "By combining cutting-edge components and innovative architecture, we will be well-positioned to redefine the boundaries of what is possible in quantum computing."
Richard Murray, CEO of ORCA Computing said: "With its unparalleled performance, the outcome of this project will spearhead new frontiers in hybrid quantum-classical computation, driving significant advancements in machine learning and optimisation."
