We're solving
industry problems with
academic research.

Quantum computing is set to revolutionise problem-solving for the betterment of our economy and society. To realise this potential, quantum resources must be deployed with skill and precision. 

We are leading a dedicated research programme to deliver quantum-enhanced solutions that are demonstrable, verifiable, and co-designed for emerging quantum hardware.
