South Carolina becomes the latest state to
accelerate the advancement of quantum computing
IonQ (NYSE: IONQ), a leader in the quantum computing industry,
today announced it has entered a strategic agreement with South
Carolina Quantum (SC Quantum) to provide world-class quantum
computing capabilities and professional services to SC Quantum
partners, including academic institutions. As part of the
agreement, IonQ and SC Quantum will partner to develop
quantum-specific academic coursework for training future members of
the quantum economy. SC Quantum will also partner with IonQ to
accelerate the introduction of quantum technologies within
enterprises, startups, and industries across South Carolina.
With today’s announcement, SC Quantum becomes the latest U.S.
state effort to partner with IonQ, joining other states like
Maryland and Washington in recognizing the need for quantum skill
sets across business, government, and academia. In 2023, South
Carolina earmarked millions for SC Quantum to develop a
quantum-focused workforce and build quantum-smart technologies in
the state.
“SC Quantum’s partnership with IonQ establishes a clear path for
training and supporting the quantum workforce through academia and
industry collaborations,” said Peter Chapman, CEO and President of
IonQ. “International interest in quantum computing has grown
exponentially in recent years, driven by government-backed
initiatives and support. Today’s announcement signifies a momentous
achievement in ensuring the United States – through projects like
SC Quantum – maintains its leadership position in the quantum
industry.”
“It is becoming increasingly clear that quantum information
science and quantum computing have the potential to directly impact
every aspect of South Carolina’s economy,” said Joe Queenan,
Executive Director of SC Quantum. “We believe this collaboration
can inspire technical discoveries that transform our region’s
economy. Today’s partnership between IonQ and SC Quantum ensures
our state is offering the most dynamic and globally competitive
destination for quantum discovery, education, and
entrepreneurship.
Today’s announcement is the latest in a series of regional and
international developments for IonQ. This year, IonQ announced the
opening of the first dedicated quantum manufacturing facility in
the U.S., located in Seattle, Washington. In 2023, IonQ and the
University of Maryland announced the grand opening of the National
Quantum Laboratory (QLab) to provide people with access to the
world’s most powerful quantum computers. IonQ also announced an
international partnership with QuantumBasel in Switzerland to
establish a European quantum data center, in addition to signing
Memorandum of Understandings with significant South Korean
universities and institutions – South Korea’s Ministry of Science
and ICT (Information and Communications Technology), Sungkyunkwan
University, and Seoul National University’s Center for Quantum
Information Science Education.
