Collaboration
Pasqal & IBM collaboration
IBM and Pasqal aim to develop a common approach to quantum-centric supercomputing and advance application-driven research, working with leading HPC institutions.
Scaling collaboration in 3 strategic areas:
HPC Integration
Share information to support defining and prototyping software infrastructure to enable interoperability between HPC, IBM and Pasqal quantum computers.
Use Cases
Support industry adoption through participation in working groups and exploratory use-case pilots in areas where quantum computing shows near-term promise.
Ecosystem
Contribute to open-source initiatives, whitepapers and community tools that support interoperability and user access to quantum-centric supercomputing.
From Inception
IBM and Pasqal are partnering to develop a unified approach to quantum-centric supercomputing, combining their expertise in superconducting and neutral atom quantum technologies. Together, they intend to advance real-world applications in chemistry and materials science through open-source software and participation in working groups related to hybrid quantum-classical workflows. These activities represent an important step toward exploring scalable quantum computing in industry.
A Strategic Collaboration for Quantum Industrial Readiness and Hybridization
Expanding the Ecosystem
IBM and Pasqal are collaborating on open-source infrastructure targeting a unified, hardware-agnostic programming model for quantum-centric supercomputing. This initiative aims to facilitate interoperability between IBM and Pasqal hardware. As an initial milestone, Qiskit users will gain access to Pasqal’s neutral-atom quantum processors to develop hybrid workflows.
