Quantum computing just fired on all cylinders this week. From Canada’s Xanadu cracking the code on error-resistant photonic chips, to Infleqtion pulling in $100M to weaponize quantum for U.S. defense. IonQ gobbled up Lightsynq to accelerate quantum networking, while ORCA Computing is chasing the AI crown with room-temperature photonic RAM. And Europe’s QphoX, Rigetti, and the NQCC joined forces to ditch microwave readouts for optical links, fast-tracking scalable superconducting systems. But wait, there’s more: SemiQon is going cryo-CMOS, Riverlane and Sheffield are cracking error correction, and Alice & Bob just got knighted into France’s Tech Next40. Oh, and Micius—the world’s first quantum satellite? Hackable. The arms race is real, the stakes are geopolitical, and quantum agents are now a thing (yes, literally AI + qubits). Scroll on, quantum rebels — the future is scaling faster than your classical brain can buffer.
