The Quantum Daily’s Quarterly Report Points to Resilience Despite Covid-19
The Quantum Daily has issued its quarterly report reviewing the third quarter for 2020. The report’s highlights that the quantum industry has attracted over $100 million of private capital from over 20 investors. Whilst less than Q2 (which captured the record-breaking PsiQuantum raise), it shows continued interest in the space, despite economic headwinds. “After weathering the […]
Vancouver-Based Startup Empowering Hedge Funds, Commodities Traders, Business Analysts & Data Science Enthusiasts With QML
Photo: h.heyerlein, Unsplash Anything You Can Do… As of yet, quantum computing (QC) has not proved to be a very practical technology. The lack of real-world use cases is one of the criticisms laid upon it. This, however, may one day change when QC reaches what experts in the industry are calling Quantum Advantage. This term […]
Finnish Quantum Startup Says Device Could Fit in a Bacterium
A team of researchers have engineered a fast and ultra-sensitive nanoscale bolometer that detects very faint microwave radiation. In fact, the radiation detected is so weak that heating up a cup of coffee at room temperature, for 1°C in a microwave oven would have taken 50 septillion times more energy. That is a 5 followed by 25 […]
India-born Startup Focuses on QC Computational Fluid Dynamics Solution For Aerospace Industry
King Bose When a startup is named after a class of elementary subatomic particles called bosons — inspired by the great Indian mathematician and physicist Satyendra Nath Bose and his scientific legacy — you know its intentions are grandiose in scale. BosonQ Psi, founded this year in Bhilai, Chhattisgarh, India, is an initiative that wants to ‘lead the paradigm […]
