We are still very enthusiastic about #quantumcomputing taking center stage at NVIDIA's #GTC25! In a first-of-its-kind moment, leaders from the world’s top quantum companies - including our CEO, Loïc Henriet - shared the stage with NVIDIA’s Jensen Huang to explore the present and future of quantum computing. Last week's dynamic, thought-provoking discussion highlighted the diversity of technological approaches, the constructive clashes of perspective, but also the growing consensus on key industry themes: 🔹 Quantum utility 🔹 Integration with classical computing 🔹 And the powerful intersection with AI 🎙️ “Quantum processors will help act as accelerators — working alongside traditional computers — rather than replacing them,” said Loïc, summing up Pasqal’s vision for the quantum-classical future.

🚀 Pasqal x NVIDIA: Accelerating Hybrid Quantum-Classical Computing While yesterday we had our CEO, Loïc Henriet, share the stage at #GTC25 with NVIDIA's CEO Jensen Huang and representatives from the most prominent #quantum companies, we were also celebrating a new technical integration with NVIDIA 🎉 This brings Pasqal’s neutral-atom quantum computing computers and cloud platform to CUDA-Q, NVIDIA’s open-source platform for hybrid quantum-classical computing. This integration empowers developers with a unified programming model across CPUs, GPUs, and QPUs—enabling faster innovation and more seamless workflows in high-performance computing (HPC) environments. We are excited to see quantum computing take center stage at the seminal #GTC25 event, and our industry preparing pragmatically for the next stages of technological achievements in our joint journey towards #quantumadvantage and #FTQC! 🎙️ “Our collaboration with NVIDIA will enable us to offer a much-requested interface and programming model for the HPC and wider quantum community,” — Loïc Henriet, CEO, Pasqal 🔗 Find out more about our latest integration with NVIDIA in the announcement here - https://lnkd.in/eB4aEe4s As a proud member of the NVIDIA Inception program, Pasqal is committed to pushing the boundaries of interoperability and accelerating the development of real-world quantum solutions. #NVIDIA #CUDAQ #Pasqal #HPC #AI #Pulser #QuantumTech #TechInnovation #HybridComputing #QuantumClassicalIntegration

Quantum computing discussions in progress now at #GTC25! Our CEO, Loïc Henriet, joins NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang and many other quantum leaders to discuss approaches, near and long-term plans, trends and so much more!

🚀 Quantum Advantage isn’t a question of “if” but “when.” When will quantum computers truly outperform classical solutions for real-world problems? At Pasqal, we believe the answer lies in systematic benchmarking – comparing quantum performance against the best classical methods in industry-scale applications. In our latest research, “Identifying Hard Native Instances for the Maximum Independent Set Problem on Neutral Atoms Quantum Processors”, we tackled combinatorial optimization on our neutral-atom quantum processors. But rather than relying on simple problem instances, we push the boundaries with harder benchmarks – ones that truly test quantum capabilities. 💡 Here’s what we explored:  ✅ What makes a good benchmark for quantum computing  ✅ How do today’s quantum processors perform against classical solvers  ✅ What key hardware improvements are needed to drive the next leap forward Congratulations to the authors for their great work and efforts: Pierre Cazals, Aymeric François, Loïc Henriet, Lucas Leclerc, Malory Marin, M.Yassine Naghmouchi, Wesley Coelho, Florian Sikora, Vittorio Vitale, Rémi Watrigant, Monique Witt Garzillo, Constantin Dalyac 👏 📖 You can read the paper here - https://lnkd.in/e4y9bd42 or deep dive into the findings in out latest blog post - https://lnkd.in/eVC8yzFz   Stay tuned for what’s next in our endeavors to crack quantum advantage! #QuantumComputing #QuantumAdvantage #Innovation

🚀 Exciting times for quantum computing! 🚀 Yesterday’s announcement from D-Wave marks an interesting milestone in quantum simulation, and we congratulate their team on the publication of their peer-reviewed paper in Science. This research showcases a compelling experiment studying the dynamics of quantum magnets, an area we at Pasqal are also deeply invested in as we pursue Quantum Advantage (QA). Here’s the perspective of our leaders and teams of scientists:  ✔️ This is a great scientific paper and a valuable contribution to the field which aligns with our own vision for quantum simulation.  ✔️ The claim of Quantum Advantage or Supremacy remains open to debate – previous studies have demonstrated that similar tasks can be handled with classical computers under the right conditions (see the papers by Joseph Tindall and Giuseppe Carleo - https://lnkd.in/eEgvirdP and https://lnkd.in/ePB-ynpW).  ✔️ At Pasqal, we aim to push beyond, focusing on complex situations with dynamics that are even more challenging to simulate classically. “The race for practical quantum advantage is just beginning, and we are confident that Pasqal’s neutral-atom technology will play a leading role in reaching the next breakthroughs.” - Georges-Olivier REYMOND & Loïc Henriet #QuantumComputing #QuantumAdvantage #QuantumSimulation #NeutralAtoms #Innovation #Pasqal

Pasqal’s Quantum Processing Unit at Jülich Supercomputing Centre (JSC) 🚀 A few months ago, as part of the HPCQS_EU project, we successfully delivered our neutral atom quantum computer at JSC, marking a significant step towards the integration of quantum computing into high-performance computing (HPC). This collaboration with JSC is paving the way for hybrid quantum-HPC architectures that will unlock new capabilities for scientific research and industrial applications.
