      Podcast with Christopher Godfree, Commercial Director at Across the Pond

      How do you make your quantum startup stand out in an industry where every company name starts with the letter Q? One powerful way to do that is to tell the stories of the people building the technology.

    1. Establishing an Analytical Framework to Benchmark Logical Qubit Performance Claims

      This document outlines five diagnostic criteria for evaluating logical qubit performance claims, crucial for benchmarking in the shift from NISQ to Fault-Tolerant Quantum Computing. These criteria ensure that logical qubits demonstrate true error correction, scalability, sustained operation, and reliable error rates, providing a standardized framework for assessing the industry’s progress.
