Qruise develops software that helps scientists and researchers use Machine Learning tools in their day-to-day
scientific workflows without having to worry about what's under the hood. ML has revolutionised how science is
being done and taking advantage of this new numerical toolset should not require having a full time ML
scientist on the team to design, develop and deploy systems. Qruise is developing ML for Science as a
productised toolset making ML driven discovery accessible to all. Our first offerings address the growing
pains of controlling current generation noisy quantum computers (NISQ devices) and provide improvements in
operational fidelities through the use of ML & Quantum Optimal Control.
With a dedicated team of scientists, engineers and developers we are pushing quantum technology to support
scientists worldwide with our scalable qubit control and readout equipment from ultrastable DC to 18.5 GHz for
academic and industrial quantum labs. The Qblox control stack combines unlevelled noise performance,
low-latency arbitrary control flows and can be scaled up to 100s of qubits. Our company is based in the
Netherlands as a spinoff of QuTech, which enables us to implement the latest scientific insights and take a
position upfront in the worldwide race towards quantum advantage. Using the technology developed at QuTech as
a springboard, the Qblox team has fundamentally reimagined the architecture of quantum control to create a
single integrated control stack that provides all the functionality needed to manipulate and measure quantum
computers. The Qblox team is interested in meeting experimental quantum physicists to learn about their
applications and how Qblox could support their scaling needs.
Designing, developing, and fabricating hardware to enable quantum computing.
We are dedicated to build easy to operate one push button cool-down cryogen-free dilution refrigerator
measurement systems. Our dedication and expertise will make sure that each final product is trouble free with
a guaranteed long lifetime.
We offer a variety of models of dilution refrigerator measurement systems and these models can be further
equipped with a wide range of options, for example, experimental wiring, optical access, and magnet
integration. Our systems can be customized to meet the requirements of each intended use by allowing the
customer to get in direct contact with the scientists and engineers that design their system.
Quantum Machines (QM) accelerates the realization of practical quantum computing that will disrupt all
industries. Our comprehensive portfolio includes state-of-the-art control systems and cryogenic electronic
solutions that support multiple quantum processing unit technologies. QM's OPX family of quantum controllers
leverages unique Pulse Processing Unit (PPU) technology to deliver unprecedented performance, scalability, and
productivity. Easily programmable at the pulse level or gate level (OpenQASM3), OPX runs even the most complex
quantum algorithms right out of the box – Including quantum error correction, multi-qubit calibration,
mid-circuit frequency tracking, and more. With hundreds of deployments, Quantum Machines’ products and
solutions have been widely adopted by national and academic research labs, HPC centers, quantum computer
manufacturers, and cloud service providers. For more information, please visit 
QuantrolOx is an Anglo-Finnish company pioneering the development of automated qubit control software that
brings sustained and stable gate performance to qubits. This enables scientists focus on using quantum
computers rather than constantly fixing them. This is achieved by automating the tuning, stabilisation, and
optimisation of qubits, thereby removing a key bottleneck in the scaling of quantum computers.
With QuantrolOx, quantum scientists get a stable platform for sustained experimentation and get more out of
their expensive quantum infrastructure.
QuantrolOx's software is applicable across many types of quantum technologies, however initially the
company is targeting solid-state qubits where the team has already demonstrated substantial practical
benefits.
IBM Quantum is an industry-first initiative to build quantum systems for business and science applications.
SCALINQ is a rapidly growing frontrunner in the quantum computing ecosystem. With our team of passionate
engineers and researchers, we are tackling the most pressing hardware limitations in quantum research. As of
today we are offering:

Intermodulation Products makes Presto, a combined microwave signal generator and analyzer especially suited
for quantum technologies such as characterization of superconducting qubits and control of multi-qubit chips.
Presto offers a high density of synchronized ports and removes the need of external IQ mixers or local
oscillators, simplifying the experimental setup and allowing for scalable control of many qubits. By making
use of the latest development in RF system-on-a-chip Presto integrates both high-speed ADCs and DACs not just
in a single box, but in a single chip, providing the lowest possible feedback latency for applications such as
qubit reset, as well as extremely low cross-port jitter. Single and multi-qubit gates, multi-level state
discrimination and randomized benchmarking can all be easily implemented using a Python API where complex wave
forms and filter matches are precisely scheduled in time. Other phenomena such as noise squeezing and noise
correlation can be studied using a multifrequency continuous wave mode.
