£15 million competition to accelerate use of quantum in Government

The first winners of a £15 million competition to explore the benefits of using quantum technologies in the government’s work across areas like health, transport and net zero have been announced today (7 September). The Quantum Catalyst Fund aims to accelerate the adoption of quantum solutions by the public sector and will ensure the UK government is well-placed to fully harness the benefits of using these technologies across a range of policy areas. Quantum technologies – one of the government’s five critical technologies – are devices and systems using quantum mechanics to provide capabilities that ‘classical’ machines like binary computers cannot.

IA cuántica: el siguiente gran salto evolutivo de la nueva economía ya está en marcha

En la carrera exponencial de las aplicaciones tecnológicas del siglo XXI, la inteligencia artificial y la computación y las comunicaciones cuánticas destacan por su 'estado del arte', en la era de los datos y de la indispensable 'sociedad de la eficiencia'. Por ello, la 'IA Cuántica' ya se encuentra en lanzadera, todo un empeño al trabajar con una concepción que llegará a conseguir en segundos, desde los centros y sistemas de supercomputación, lo que ahora se consigue en años, gracias a la proyección de la superposición, que permite trabajar con ceros y unos (la base de la computación ya denominada 'clásica') simultáneamente. En este empeño, la Unión Europea destinó más de 7.500 millones de euros para preparar esta vía de progreso que impactará directamente en los llamados 'verticales' de la industria y la empresa, en todo tipo de sectores, desde el sector de la salud, de la energía, de la logística, hasta el propio de la tecnología. En el caso de España, el programa Quantum Spain (1 enero 2022-31 diciembre 2025) tiene como objetivo impulsar y financiar una infraestructura competitiva y completa de computación cuántica en España, en torno a ejes como la Red Española de Supercomputación. Esta iniciativa, impulsada por el Ministerio de Economía a través de la Secretaría de Estado de Digitalización e Inteligencia Artificial y financiada con los Fondos de Recuperación, acaba de sumar a su proyecto a 14 instituciones de investigación nacionales, desde la Universidad de Barcelona y la Universidad Complutense al CSIC (Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas).

Ally Recognized by CIO 100 for Quantum Computing

Our CIO 100 Award Winning Project Our submission to the CIO 100 showcased a proof-of-concept (POC) with vendors Protiviti and Multiverse Computing to help Ally develop computing capabilities that solve challenges using both classical and quantum computing power. Ally sees value in preparing to be ‘at the ready’ as quantum computing machines become more powerful. The project centered on financial index tracking, an essential application of portfolio optimization used by financial firms for asset management strategies or for creating and managing new financial products such as exchange-traded funds (ETFs). A POC is a smart choice for a team looking to invest wisely in quantum computing because it allows safe experimentation and testing that could eventually be deployed to customers. While there’s no current plan to deploy this capability to Ally customers, it allows the technology team to solve complex problems and run tests in a controlled environment, which is critical for accelerating innovation.

7 ways that quantum computing is making an impact in the real world

The number of VC-funded quantum startups in Europe is growing fast, with many making bold claims that their technology could one day revolutionise the world economy. Yet it's still difficult to answer one fundamental thing: what can quantum computers actually do? For now, the quantum computing industry remains in what's known as the NISQ era — Noisy Intermediate Scale Quantum — in which error rates and the limited size of quantum processors significantly limit the power of quantum computers. A fully fledged quantum computer, which would be able to solve complex calculations unmanageable for today’s supercomputers, is still years away.

Quantum Untangled - The code that makes the qubits useful

The first computer program was written by Ada Lovelace in 1843 for Charles Babbage's marvellously ambitious (and tragically hypothetical) Analytical Engine. Intended to showcase the computational power of this whirring, shunting assembly of cogs and flywheels, Lovelace’s code was designed to calculate a sequence of Bernoulli numbers. Though the Analytical Engine was never completed in either Lovelace or Babbage’s lifetimes, computer science students still use Bernoulli numbers to flex their coding muscles.
