World-leading quantum computing technology at UNSW

UNSW creates future with launch of 'unique' quantum computing company and in a bid to launch 10-qubit forerunner to a silicon-based quantum computer. Australia’s first hardware quantum computing company, Silicon Quantum Computing Pty Ltd, has been launched to advance the development and commercialisation of UNSW Sydney’s world-leading quantum computing technology.

The rest of the world is watching, government and industry leaders have been told, as UNSW ramps up commercial efforts to build the silicon-based quantum computer. It will drive the development and commercialisation of a 10-qubit quantum integrated circuit prototype in silicon by 2022 as the forerunner to a silicon based quantum computer.
