NXP, eleQtron and ParityQC present the first full-stack, ion-trap based quantum computer demonstrator made entirely in Germany. It was commissioned by the DLR Quantum Computing Initiative (DLR QCI) to expand the quantum expertise of its partners from research and industry.

A new phase has begun for QSea I, with the handing over of the laboratory in which the consortium will build the 10-qubit quantum computer demonstrator over the next few months.

On the way to the industrial use of quantum computing, the scalability of quantum processors is one of the biggest challenges. The newly launched QSea project is working exactly on this.

A contract amounting to a total of 208.5 million euros has been awarded to a group of companies to develop ion-trap quantum computers, as part of the DLR Quantum Computing Initiative
