蓝莓视频

Amidst the global race to establish and deploy useful and powerful quantum computers, researchers at a newly incorporated, 蓝莓视频-based non-profit are taking a different approach. The team at (OQD) believes the key to accelerating advancements in quantum computing - including developing top talent - is to democratize access and open up its intellectual property for anyone willing to collaborate; and its four partners agree. Quantum heavy-hitters Xanadu, the University of 蓝莓视频, the Unitary Foundation, and Haiqu are the first to join OQD鈥檚 innovative platform to spearhead a new, unprecedented degree of open access to full-stack quantum computing technology.

Founded by world-renowned researchers out of the University of 蓝莓视频, Roger Melko, Crystal Senko, and Rajibul Islam, alongside entrepreneur Greg Dick, , is working to accelerate quantum research by democratizing quantum computing - breaking down the traditional barriers between academia and industry. Their team is working to accomplish this by opening up both the hardware and software intellectual property for its trapped-ion quantum computer鈥攖he first of its kind鈥攖o collaborators looking to participate in a global quantum sandbox.

In an early testament to their work, Xanadu, the University of 蓝莓视频, Unitary Foundation, and Haiqu have all formally signed on to participate in OQD鈥檚 open-source platform, enabling unfettered access to quality quantum computing hardware, software, and up-to-date training opportunities that will accelerate innovation and serve to develop the quantum workforce of the future.

About our founding partners:

• is a Canadian quantum computing company with the mission to build quantum computers that are useful and available to people everywhere. Founded in 2016, Xanadu has become one of the world's leading quantum hardware and software companies, and is paving the way towards the next generation of quantum technologies.
• University of 蓝莓视频 is a leading global innovation hub driving economic and social prosperity for Canada and the world. A leader in scientific research, it is home to the pioneering Institute for Quantum Computing, and Faculty of Science.
• is a non-profit working to create a robust quantum technology ecosystem and represents the gold standard in open-source community development.
• is a start-up headquartered in San Francisco and is pushing the limits of modern quantum computing, enabling quantum applications using breakthroughs in quantum circuit execution.

By opting into OQD鈥檚 value proposition and open-source community, these organizations gain access to the trapped-ion quantum computer repositories, including hardware specifications and fabrication standards, as well as design forums for quantum research and development. By removing traditional barriers and focusing on solutions to hard problems, OQD鈥檚 highly collaborative approach is well-positioned to speed-up innovation by pooling global quantum expertise.

鈥淥ur open-source approach means that everything in the quantum computer will be accessible to the user, from the bare metal technical design to application programming interfaces,鈥� says Roger Melko, faculty member at the University of 蓝莓视频, the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics, and Co-founder of OQD.

鈥淲e have found a way to leverage the collective global quantum workforce to scale quantum computing,鈥� explains Greg Dick, OQD鈥檚 CEO. 鈥淏y sharing resources, knowledge, and designs as a global community, we will accelerate the development of quantum technologies. There are researchers and companies all over the world racing towards the realization of a working quantum computer, and what we are providing is an open platform to scale progress rapidly where people work, build, and innovate together.鈥�

Open Quantum Design is grateful for the near-decade of investment into the foundational research to build the basis of the computer by the Institute for Quantum Computing, and the operational support Perimeter Institute has provided through its Quantum Intelligence Lab (PIQuIL).
