Building the world’s first useful quantum computer.

About us

Quantum computing will be a world-changing technology with the potential to unlock powerful advances in medicine, energy, finance and beyond. At PsiQuantum, we’re focused on building the world’s first useful quantum computer. A useful quantum computer requires at least 1,000,000 qubits and error correction. We believe photonics is the only path to building a useful quantum computer. Our team at PsiQuantum is a mix of quantum physicists, semiconductor, systems, and software engineers, system architects and more. Error correction is at the centre of everything we do; and we focus on solving real-world problems. If you’re interested in joining our team, we are always open to hearing from exceptional people interested in working on one of the defining technologies of our lifetime.

    PsiQuantum is proud to be included in the Silicon Valley Defense Group's NatSec 100 for 2024 and listed as the top quantum computing company. Quantum computing stands to have a profound impact on our collective economic and national security, and PsiQuantum's only mission is to build and deploy large-scale systems capable of unlocking the promise of this technology. Given the important national security ramifications of this world-changing technology, we have been working with the U.S. Government across a range of agencies and partnerships, including the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and the Air Force Research Laboratory. We look forward to ongoing partnership with leaders in the U.S. and allied governments whose ongoing support has been crucial to our success. Our work continues.

    We are incredibly excited to share the 2024 Edition of SVDG’s NATSEC100, sponsored by JPMorganChase. The purpose of this report is to offer a data-driven snapshot in time of our emergent techno-security ecosystem–one which we hope will drive meaningful, if pointed, discourse about the state of the Defense Industrial Base (DIB) and broader National Security Innovation Base (NSIB). While this list is by no means a perfect encapsulation of the Ecosystem, we hope that—at minimum—it provides that data-driven foundation for the important dialogue we must continue to have loudly, honestly, and publicly.    This year, we hope you’ll recognize that several variables seem to be trending in the right direction. Even things we were surprised by. But overall, the picture is still far from rosy. There is a lot of work that remains to be done - by all stakeholders: industry, government, the private capital community. We all have a role to play. The question is how committed are we to playing those respective roles. There is no question - in our minds here at SVDG - about how much there is at stake. #NATSEC100 https://natsec100.org/

    "PsiQuantum was founded on the premise that scalability, not just science, is the key to success... While there's many ways to make one qubit, there's probably only one way to make the millions of qubits needed for quantum computing to change the world." - Luke Ward of Baillie Gifford and PsiQuantum Investor. We're fortunate to work with investors and partners who understand quantum computing's potential and the technical approach required to build the first utility-scale, fault-tolerant quantum computing systems.

    We’ve just announced the availability of our Quantum Resource Estimation Format (QREF) and the beta-release of Bartiq, a Quantum Resource Estimator. These open-source resources are designed to automate the complex, time-consuming task of estimating resource requirements for fault-tolerant algorithms. Despite a growing effort, the quantum computing industry lacks algorithm tools that are efficient, precise, accessible, and reproducible. QREF and Bartiq are the first steps in building standard libraries and tool integration for the development of fault-tolerant algorithms. Over the next few months, PsiQuantum will work closely with select customers and partners to integrate QREF and Bartiq into their quantum computing projects. QREF is available today and we are targeting Bartiq to be fully available in Q3 2024. As we prepare for the full launch of Bartiq to the open-source community, we invite researchers, developers and quantum computing enthusiasts to reach out and connect with the PsiQuantum team. https://lnkd.in/gK-YiZwV

    Today, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, Premier Steven Miles, Queensland Treasurer Cameron Dick, Minister Ed Husic MP, U.S. Ambassador Caroline Kennedy and PsiQuantum Co-Founder & CEO Jeremy O'Brien announced that PsiQuantum will build the first utility-scale, fault-tolerant quantum computer in Brisbane, Australia. In a landmark $940M AUD ($620M USD) investment from the Australian government, Jeremy shared that the company plans to make Australia it’s Asia-Pacific HQ. The site, which will sit next to Brisbane airport, is expected to be operational by the end of 2027. PsiQuantum holds deep roots in Australia as co-founders Jeremy O'Brien O’Brien and Prof. Terry Rudolph are both from Australia and attended university in Queensland. Jeremy received his PhD from UNSW and spent nearly a decade in research labs in The University of Queensland conducting early photonic quantum computing research. PsiQuantum has scaled its fusion-based architecture using a photonics-based approach, encoding qubits into particles of light, and leveraging advanced infrastructure in the semiconductor industry to develop and test millions of photonic devices. We’re now testing production pieces of hardware at our facilities in Palo Alto, California and at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory through our partnership with the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE). While this is by no means the finish line, we’re thrilled to partner with the Australian and Queensland governments who are turning their quantum mandates into a reality.

    We're thrilled to share that PsiQuantum has been awarded a contract with the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) to advance to the second phase of the Underexplored Systems for Utility-Scale Quantum Computing (US2QC) program, which seeks to determine whether an underexplored approach to quantum computing – like PsiQuantum’s photonic approach – can achieve utility-scale operation much faster than conventional predictions. The program's initial phase, which began in January 2023, included a year-long diligence effort from a number of different experts from various leading government research institutions. "We are glad to see a focused effort specifically targeted on large-scale, fault-tolerant quantum computing. PsiQuantum was proud to be initially named one of just three industry performers on the US2QC program and today’s announcement is no different – the company welcomes the opportunity to continue this important work with DARPA and other partners across the U.S. Government.” - Jeremy O'Brien, CEO & Co-Founder of PsiQuantum. https://lnkd.in/guuyq-84
