IBM announced the expansion of the IBM Q Network to include a number of global universities. Their intent is to partner with the company to accelerate joint research in quantum computing, and develop curricula to help prepare students for careers that will be influenced by this next era of computing, across science and business.
The IBM Q Network is the world's first community of Fortune 500 companies, startups, academic institutions and research labs working to advance quantum computing and explore practical applications. BM announced Florida State University, the University of Notre Dame, Virginia Tech, Stony Brook University, and the University of Tokyo will have direct access to IBM Q's most-advanced commercially available quantum computing systems for teaching, and faculty and student research projects that advance quantum information science and explore early applications, as academic partners.
"Developing practical quantum applications that drive business and scientific breakthroughs requires a diverse ecosystem," said Dr. Anthony Annunziata, IBM Q Network Global Lead, IBM Research. "Partnering with these world-leading academic and research institutions is key as we work to educate, empower, and get the next generation of students 'quantum ready' to advance the field.
Beginning this summer, IBM will host developer boot camps and hackathons for hands-on training of the open source Q Experience cloud services platform, and the full-stack open source Qiskit quantum software platform on campus at participating universities. The IBM Q Network provides its organizations with quantum expertise and resources, quantum software and developer tools, as well as cloud-based access to quantum software and developer tools, as well as cloud-based access to IBM's most advanced, commercially available and scalable universal quantum computing systems. In addition, the no-cost and publicly available Q Experience now supports more than 100,000 users, who have run more than 10 million experiments and published more than 180 third-party research papers.
