A big week of developments! Intel's investment in quantum education, and CDL's Quantum Stream expansion underscore the importance of education and collaboration in advancing the quantum field. European researchers continue to lead in quantum innovation, backed by the QuantERA and Quantum Flagship programs. At the same time the Quantum Safe Financial Forum gets born with help of Europol and several financial institutions (including Santander Bank and Moody’s among others). Companies are striving to reach 10,000 physical qubits within five years, a significant leap towards unlocking quantum computation's full potential. China's advanced superconducting quantum computer, Origin Wukong, has been fortified with a powerful "anti-quantum attack shield," indicating China's exploration of new data security technologies. The Dutch quantum institute QuTech aims to construct Europe's first 100-qubit quantum computer by 2026, while Qunnect achieved a record-breaking performance in the distribution of polarization qubits on the GothamQ Network. Yilei Chen's paper on quantum algorithms for lattice problems could have substantial implications if quantum computers are built, but they found a bug!. Lastly, Quantinuum achieved significant milestones in quantum computing, demonstrating 9,99% fidelity on 2 qubit gates. on their H-Series QCs. This plays very well with their error correction announcement with Microsoft from two weeks ago (Even though still limited by the amount of qubits).
You produce great content, curating what important information for anyone who wants to stay up to date on quantum developments!! Thank you!!
