The ICFO team led by Professor Leticia Tarruell has developed QUIONE, the only quantum-gas microscope capable of imaging individual atoms of strontium quantum gases. Meanwhile China goes live with 504 qubis and available in the cloud. In the business realm, Pasqal and Welinq have teamed up to develop quantum interconnects for neutral-atom quantum computing, aiming to solve the challenges of qubit scaling. In cybersecurity, the Quantum Safe Financial Forum, established by Europol's EC3 and the EC3 Advisory Group on Financial Services, is working towards transitioning the financial sector to Post Quantum Cryptography by 2030. On the funding front, the European Commission has pledged €112 million to research and innovation in AI and quantum technologies under Horizon Europe's 2023-2024 work programme. A collaboration between the University of Cambridge, the Wellcome Sanger Institute, and EMBL’s European Bioinformatics Institute has been awarded up to $3.5 million to explore the potential of quantum computing in genomics.Xiaotian Xu, Kuan-Cheng Chen, and Robert Wille have introduced HamilToniQ, an open-source, application-oriented benchmarking toolkit for Quantum Processing Units. Rigetti launches Novera, their QPU partner program.
