D-Wave has appointed Kevan P. Krysler to its board of directors and audit committee, bolstering the company’s capabilities in finance, risk management, and corporate governance.
Pasqal trapped four rubidium atoms using laser light delivered from a photonic integrated circuit. The result is a technical demonstration toward smaller, more scalable optics for neutral‑atom systems.
Q-CTRL has appointed Malo Cadoret, who has field-demonstration experience with mobile quantum gravimeters, as Principal Scientist to strengthen development of quantum navigation for dynamic environments including maritime settings.
Rigetti announced its Q2 2026 results: revenue rose year‑over‑year to $5.1 million while operating loss totaled $28.1 million. The company also disclosed superconducting system performance and a roadmap toward roughly 1,000 qubits.
D-Wave demonstrated a two-qubit entangling gate with about 99.9% fidelity and roughly 500 ns gate time. The results were published in Nature.
Qubit counts and funding alone don’t tell the whole story. Quantum Index’s editorial team gave independent 3–5 year outlooks for 29 leading domestic and international quantum-related companies, evaluating technical feasibility, distance to commercialization, revenue, customer base, and more.
IonQ has completed its acquisition of U.S. semiconductor foundry SkyWater Technology, bringing design, manufacturing, and advanced packaging in-house to strengthen its quantum technology supply chain.
Microsoft has unveiled Majorana 2, a topological quantum processor using new materials that extend qubit lifetimes by over 1,000× versus its predecessor, and aims for a scalable quantum computer by 2029.
