French fault-tolerant quantum computing company Alice & Bob has raised investment from NVentures, NVIDIA’s venture capital arm, that expands its €100 million Series B round. The investment supports Alice & Bob's development of an architecture towards fault-tolerant quantum computing.
According to Théau Peronnin, CEO, Alice & Bob:
“We’ve been working alongside NVIDIA to connect our cat-qubit architecture with its full accelerated computing ecosystem, from hardware to software, in support of the first fault-tolerant quantum computers. NVentures’ investment marks a new phase in that relationship and reinforces our common view that the future of quantum will be hybrid, combining quantum and classical computing to solve real-world problems.”
“NVIDIA has built the platform the quantum ecosystem needs to develop and run hybrid quantum-GPU supercomputers, connecting quantum processors to state-of-the-art accelerated computing. Alice & Bob shares NVIDIA's vision for accelerated quantum supercomputing, and has worked closely with us to integrate their qubits with our quantum platform for advancing the scientific computing of the future,” shared Timothy Costa, Vice President and General Manager of Quantum at NVIDIA.
