Oxford Ionics

Our very first blog post is live 🎉 We’re kicking off a blog to share insights, technical deep dives, and stories that matter to us. In our first post, our CEO and Co-founder Chris Ballance explores how we turned our quantum chips classical to build quantum chips that are inherently scalable and compatible with the existing semiconductor industry. It’s just the beginning of many conversations we hope to spark, collaborations we aim to build, and knowledge we want to share. 💡 Check it out here: https://lnkd.in/eprfwDhN We’d love to hear your thoughts, feedback, or just a quick hello in the comments! #quantum #quantumcomputing #trappedions #innovation #scalability

Oxford Ionics has been selected for Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA)'s Quantum Benchmarking Initiative! 🚀 DARPA is the United States’ primary research and development agency focused on identifying cutting-edge technologies with the potential for national security applications. Through its QBI initiative, DARPA is verifying and validating the quantum computing approaches that can achieve utility-scale operation by the year 2033. Oxford Ionics has been selected by DARPA to advance to the first round of QBI after demonstrating its existing technology capabilities and sharing its roadmap towards fault-tolerant quantum computers. Our approach rests on three crucial pillars: ✅Unmatched operation fidelities  ✅Unparalleled scalability ✅Built using technologies that exist today We are thrilled to be working with DARPA to usher in the next revolution in compute power.

Yesterday afternoon, UK Science Minister Lord Patrick Vallance joined us as we unveiled our brand new 30,000 sq foot HQ in Oxford. 🎉 More than 100 guests gathered to celebrate this milestone, including representatives from the Department for Science, Innovation and Technology, Department for Business and Trade, and the National Quantum Computing Centre (NQCC). Attendees had the chance to hear from Minister Vallance about the importance of quantum computing and UK-driven innovation, as well as insights from Director of the NQCC Michael Cuthbert and Oxford Ionics CEO Chris Ballance and CTO Thomas Harty. A huge thank you to all across the UK government and quantum ecosystem who joined us to mark this landmark occasion. We’re looking forward to accelerating our innovation from this home base! 🚀 👉 For more information, read more on our website at the following link: https://lnkd.in/e65NBYJb #quantumcomputing #quantum #innovation #deeptech #trappedions #UKtech #Oxford

We're thrilled to announce that Oxford Ionics has been selected by the Department for Science, Innovation and Technology and Innovate UK for the UK's #QuantumMissions pilot! ⚛️ The Quantum Missions Pilot is a program that invests in quantum computing projects that remove technological barriers to large-scale commercialisation. 🤝 Oxford Ionics is leading the #QSurge consortium, with participation from Riverlane and Bay Photonics, to remove the bottlenecks caused by qubit routing. Oxford Ionics has already addressed this challenge by engineering efficient 2D qubit connectivity, and the Q-Surge project will build on this fundamental work while also adding innovations in packaging and Quantum Error Correction. The output of this project will be used to upgrade Quartet, the quantum computer that Oxford Ionics is delivering to the National Quantum Computing Centre (NQCC) later this month. 👇 Follow the link below to learn more about the Q-Surge consortium and our work for the Quantum Missions Pilot. https://lnkd.in/e68mPR89
