CQC and Pasqal Announce Partnership that Will Advance Quantum Computation for Real Life Applications

(CambridgeQuantumComputing) Cambridge Quantum Computing (CQC) and French quantum computing start-up Pasqal announced today that they have entered into a partnership in which CQC’s quantum software development platform t|ket⟩ will be utilised on Pasqal’s cutting edge quantum information processors. t|ket⟩ – translates machine independent algorithms into executable circuits, optimising for physical qubit layout whilst reducing the number of required operations.
“We are excited to work with Pasqal, a trailblazer in the quantum computing industry,” said Ilyas Khan, CEO of CQC. “With Pasqal using t|ket⟩ on their full stack computer, our quantum computing software will be running on more platforms than ever, helping to advance quantum computation for real life applications,” he added.
“Through this partnership, we offer access to CQC’s t|ket⟩ therefore allowing our customers and partners to exploit the full capabilities of our neutral atom device,” said Christophe Jurczak, Chairman of Pasqal.
Pasqal is building quantum processors made of arrays of 2D and 3D arrays of neutral atoms manipulated by optical tweezers. This technology has unique properties in terms of scalability and connectivity between qubits, which makes it a prime candidate to achieve quantum advantage for practical applications in fields such as computer-aided drug design and finance.
