43 Revolutionary topological approach Our quantum approach brings theory to reality, harnessing topological qubits that perform computations longer and more consistently, with fewer errors. Bold investments and a global team For more than a decade, we ve made consistent investments and built the quantum dream team with collaboration across universities, industries, and more. Scalable, end-to-end technology Our full-stack quantumcomputing solution is designed so you and your developers can approach quantum computing right away, with the ability to scale.
