It offers access to the most advanced quantum computers and software over the cloud, along with training, consulting, technical support, and collaboration opportunities with IBM research scientists. Our quantum systems are the backbone of the IBM Quantum Network, known for their performance and reliability, with the capability of exploring the largest quantum space to date.<\/i><\/p>\n<p>Our newly announced quantum system roadmap along with our full IBM Quantum stack, from processor to application layer, enables the most advanced algorithmic and application R&amp;D of any platform now available in quantum computing. It is based on hardware-software co-design and has features and tools to enable users with various background from quantum physicist to domain-specific application developers with limited physics or hardware knowledge.<\/p>\n<p>This approach has made the IBM Quantum Network the world\u2019s most advanced quantum computing community, focused on propelling the science and pioneering commercial applications for quantum advantage. This unique ecosystem has over 130 members and over 400 billion quantum executions on the IBM Cloud to date, and counting. We have engagements with some of the world&#8217;s leading companies including Exxon-Mobil, Daimler, JPMC, Boeing, Goldman Sachs, Wells Fargo, Amgen, BP, Delta Airlines and Anthem.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The official registration is now open\u00a0to the IBM Quantum Virtual Open House event on Thursday, February 25, 2021.\u00a0We would like to extend an invitation to you and other leaders from your organization to attend.
