Rolls-Royce is taking quantum computing to new heights, aiming to operate nuclear power plants remotely for applications in mining colonies and extraterrestrial environments. This is part of the Quantum Technology Access Programme (QTAP), marking a significant step in nuclear safety and space advancements. Meanwhile, Riverlane and Rigetti Computing are partnering with Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) to explore the integration of quantum computers with large-scale supercomputing centres, creating a benchmarking suite, 'QStone'. The Government of Canada has announced a $17.2 million investment in the quantum technology sector, supporting 12 innovative companies and potentially creating up to 150 jobs. D-Wave Quantum Inc. has launched a starter course to address the significant skills gap in the field. On the research front, a study led by Matt McEwen and supported by the Simons Foundation presents a method to resist high-energy impact events in superconducting qubit arrays through gap engineering. Furthermore, Q-CTRL announced strategic partnerships with Wolfram, Aqarios, qBraid, Qblox, Keysight, and QuantWare to enhance quantum research and commercialization. The week concluded with two significant recognitions: John Preskill received the 2024 John Stewart Bell Prize for his contributions to quantum computation, and Japan revealed ambitious projects in all five major technologies for quantum computers as part of its Moonshot program. Lastly, QuantWare unveiled its next-gen quantum processors, Soprano-D and Contralto-D, at the Quantum Innovation Summit in Dubai.
