Yesterday, EE Times highlighted the Canadian companies moving into Stage B of DARPA’s Quantum Benchmarking Initiative.
We appreciate the coverage of Photonic and our silicon colour-centre approach — a strong reminder of how much architecture matters in building toward real quantum utility.

You can (literally) see the excitement — especially when it comes to the future of large-scale quantum.
Last month, Dr. Stephanie Simmons joined the Logic Summit in Toronto for a roundtable on Selling Quantum’s Advantage and Canada’s momentum in quantum commercialization.
