QuEra Launches Full-Stack Quantum Algorithm Co-Design Program to Maximize Quantum Computing Potential
BOSTON, November 20, 2023 – QuEra Computing, the leader in neutral-atom quantum computers, today announced that it has joined the Korea Quantum Industry Association (KQIA) to promote the technological advances and commercialization of quantum science and technology. QuEra joins almost 50 other organizations that are all working together to contribute to the national public interest and technology competitiveness in South Korea.
The KQIA was founded a year ago to advance the practical use of quantum computing technology, including hardware, application field, and software solution development, and has emerged as the leading quantum business association in South Korea. Participating companies in KQIA range from industry giants to fledgling startups, from cutting-edge innovators developing software and algorithms to established companies with applications in sectors such as finance, energy, space, biomedicine, and investment. Key activities of the KQIA include:
QuEra's technology is built on large-scale arrays of neutral atoms. It currently offers users up to 256 qubits on its Aquila-class machines and is actively working towards scaling up to much higher numbers. QuEra’s designs feature a unique combination of system size, coherence, and an innovative analog quantum processing mode that provides new ways to solve machine learning, optimization, and simulation problems. Furthermore, Aquila machines offer the added benefit of its FPQA™ technology, a field-programmable qubit array that provides flexible reconfiguration of its qubit positioning, comparable to designing a new chip layout for each computation. The hardware is complemented by Bloqade™, an open-source software package that assists with expressing and testing problems in this new way.
“We are delighted that a global quantum computing science and technology leader like Quera is joining KQIA as it will help our organization become a world-class association that will help drive the impact of quantum computing not just in Korea but all over the world,” said an officer from KQIA.
QuEra plans to open a Korea office in 2024, as a follow-up to the joint memo of understanding with Sejong City, KAIST, and QuEra that was signed in September 2023. QuEra is also in discussions with several Korean quantum organizations about participating in various domestic quantum development projects.
