Anhui is a region in China, very close to Shanghai, and where there are many universities. In the west side you can find the region of Hubei, where Wuhan is (right where Covid started) and in the east you can find Shanghai. In the capital, Hefei is where the Anhui Quantum Computing Engineering Research Center … Read more
This February 2026 Simon Wardley organized one of his journey sessions, this time around Quantum. I participated on it and this time I decided not to be a “mapper” for a subgroup. I decided to join the “risk” subgroup and learn from the experts. I have enjoyed the conversation learning from people working in the … Read more
Quantum Computing represents a weapon in terms of computation capacity. There are 3 major areas of study here: the math, the software and the hardware. The math is there, it’s well known. The software is being implemented and tested on classical computers (CPUs and GPUs), and the hardware is the component that is emerging and … Read more
Microsoft’s Majorana and Google’s Willow seem to be completely different things. Both companies presented updates of their projects by 2025, where the product they introduce on the stage is a processor. They represent two fundamentally different philosophies. While Google is perfecting a high-performance engine that is already running, Microsoft is building an entirely new type … Read more
In January Nvidia announced the Rubin Platform. It provides many things in terms of data center but my interest is in the link between this new architecture of capabilities and NVQLink announced last November 2025. The problem of Quantum Computers The biggest hurdle in quantum computing is that qubits are unstable and prone to errors. … Read more
In October Nvidia announced their work in quantum computing space, focusing mainly in the integration side (hybrid solutions), similar to the moves done by Microsoft and D-Wave. We have started 2026 with 2 new National Quantum Initiative Re-authorization Act. that authorizes billions in funding for NIST, NSF. U.S. federal agencies (FBI, CISA, and NIST) officially … Read more
NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang announced NVQLink, a new open system architecture designed to connect their powerful GPU supercomputers with quantum processors (QPUs). This hybrid computing approach aims to: I have used the basis of the previous map, but I have taken the opportunity to do a revision and reorganizing components. NVQLink plays the game here, … Read more
This week IONQ and Google did a couple of announcements. The achievements are necessary and small steps in the long run of this race, and they done in different spaces. In plain english: IONQ has improved their error control and Google has been able to run quantum models in a physical computer. Using the Wardley … Read more
A list for having a snapshot of the race for building Quantum computers with more Qubits. Company Country Qubit Technology / Capability Latest Publicly Announced Physical Qubit Count IBM USA Superconducting Transmon Qubits (Gate-based) 1121 Qubits (Condor Processor – Dec 2023) Google Quantum AI USA Superconducting Transmon Qubits (Gate-based) 105 Qubits (Willow Chip – Late … Read more
I have been reading and trying to map the capabilities China is working on Quantum Computing. I have used the same map of capabilities I have build but now highlighting the Chinese companies (prívate or state-owned) to understand what are the main players in this landscape. A table with more details Capability US Companies Chinese … Read more
