“One of the biggest opportunities to accelerate progress toward fault-tolerant quantum computing lies not in the hardware, but in the software. This is a unique area of focus for Infleqtion, and we’ve already demonstrated how Superstaq can enable up to 10x performance gains by taking specific device characteristics into consideration,” Infleqtion CEO Matthew Kinsella said in the release. “The SBIR grant is a testament to the pioneering work we’ve already done and will be a catalyst for ongoing breakthroughs in quantum software.”
