There are similarities and differences between what the company is talking about today and IBM's recent update of its roadmap ...

Quantum computing could be a $200 billion market by 2040. These AI leaders will likely play a significant role in it.

Microsoft has been on this path, now marked with a quantum roadmap, for years. Back in 2017, the Windows giant talked up topological qubits at its Ignite Conference.

But the Azure Quantum team determined early on that tackling these urgent, real-world problems will require quantum computers that employ a million qubits or more. To date, public demonstrations of ...

Microsoft today announced its roadmap for building its own quantum supercomputer, using the topological qubits the company’s researchers have been working on for quite a few years now.There are ...

This, the two companies say, has now moved the state-of-the-art of quantum computing out of what has typically been dubbed the era of noisy intermediate scale quantum (NISQ) computers.

Microsoft today introduced Majorana 1, the world’s first quantum chip powered by a new Topological Core architecture that it expects will realize quantum computers capable of solving meaningful, ...

Microsoft’s commitment to quantum is evidenced by its existing products and its long-range plans. In 2019, Microsoft released Azure Quantum as a cloud-based platform equipped with trapped-ion ...

Microsoft is announcing a new Majorana 1 processor that’s part of a quantum computing breakthrough. Researchers have spent 17 years to reach this milestone.

In 2018, in Barron's magazine, Microsoft's quantum team told the paper that the company would have a topological qubit ready by the end of that year. In a sense, the Majorana 1 is seven years late.
