Horizon Quantum Computing, the wholly-owned subsidiary of Horizon Quantum Holdings, and AQT announced a strategic collaboration to advance the development of real-world quantum computing applications via increased hardware-software integration. By combining advanced hardware capabilities with scalable software infrastructure, the two companies aim to accelerate users' ability to build real-world quantum applications. "AQT's trapped ion systems provide low error rates and long coherence times, potentially increasing the scalability and reliability of quantum computing," said Horizon Quantum CEO Dr Joe Fitzsimons. "Through this collaboration, Triple Alpha users will gain access to AQT's processors, expanding their options for cutting-edge hardware designed to solve difficult computational problems."

Horizon Quantum (HQ) and IonQ (IONQ) announced a strategic agreement. Horizon Quantum will purchase one of IonQ's first 6th-generation, chip-based 256-qubit trapped-ion systems, in furtherance of Horizon Quantum's mission to unlock the full potential of quantum computing with its software platform. The acquisition of the 256-qubit system marks a further step in Horizon Quantum's efforts to enable broad quantum advantage.
