Quantum Source’s partnership with QC Design is centred on integrating Plaquette, a sophisticated fault-tolerance software tool, into Quantum Source’s development process for photonic quantum computing. By using Plaquette to simulate realistic hardware imperfections, Quantum Source gains vital insights into optimizing its deterministic atom-photon architecture for large-scale, fault-tolerant quantum computers. This collaboration is particularly important because it addresses the key challenge of designing systems that can reliably operate with millions of qubits, thereby hastening the commercial viability of quantum computing solutions.

QC Design, a leader in quantum design automation software, has been selected for the prestigious Accelerator program by the European Innovation Council (EIC) to support the development of its design-automation software and architectures for quantum computing.

QC Design CEO Ish Dhand wins Newcomer of the Year at the German Startup Awards 2024. Celebrating the German startup ecosystem in Berlin, the event highlighted QC Design’s advances in design-automation software and architectures for fault-tolerant quantum computing.
