A quantum computer developed in superconductor technology was launched in Israel as part of a groundbreaking project in collaboration with the Aerospace Industry, the Hebrew University and the Innovation Authority. The project places Israel at the forefront of the world in the field of quantum computing
The Aerospace Industry, the Hebrew University, the Innovation Authority and "Yisim - The Research Development Society of the Hebrew University" announce the operation of the first quantum computer made in blue and white with superconductor technology. The quantum computer was developed under the leadership of the Israel Innovation Authority and in a strategic collaboration between the Aerospace Industry, the Hebrew University and an application company. The collaboration includes the establishment of an infrastructure of a quantum computer based on superconducting technology, along with a development and integration environment. These developments constitute a strategic knowledge base for the State of Israel and are suitable for security and civilian applications.
The race for 'quantum supremacy' has gained momentum in recent years, and this in view of new breakthroughs in the field. Now, many powers, including the State of Israel, are working on building infrastructure and developing quantum computers - ones that will completely change the worlds of computing in the fields of the military, industry, research and development, and more. In recent years, the aerospace industry has invested great efforts to increase its quantum activity, and now the company is considered a prominent and significant force with the launch of the first quantum computer manufactured by Blue-White.
QHIPU QUANTUM's quantum computing laboratory will concentrate planning, simulation, integration and adaptation of applied applications of a quantum computer in superconductor technology. The activity is carried out in cooperation with companies and research institutes in Israel and abroad.
The cooperation between the government, academia and the business sector is an advantage over the foreign companies competing in the field, and will help position Israel as a world leader in quantum computing.
Yishai Frankel, CEO of the Hebrew University notes that: "The team of researchers working on this futuristic project is one of the leaders at the Hebrew University. I have no doubt that the collaboration between the parties in the project brings a welcome multidisciplinarity to the table and will lead to important results for research in the field and strengthening the scientific and technological position of the State of Israel. As the Hebrew University enters its 100th year For its founding, the proximity of the events inspires: from the establishment of the first scientific research institute in the Land of Israel in 1925 at the Mount Scopus campus in Jerusalem Until the launch of the first blue and white quantum computer".
Boaz Levy, CEO of the Aerospace Industry: "Quantum technologies will fundamentally upgrade human capabilities in a wide variety of worlds, and the Aerospace Industry proudly leads the State of Israel on its way to becoming a world power in this field. In recent years, IAI has developed projects in the fields of robotics, autonomy, cyber and artificial intelligence that have been integrated into the company's business lines, some of them in cooperation with start-up companies and academia. The key to maintaining the strength of the defense industries in Israel lies, among other things, in collaborations between academia, start-up companies and industry, as well as with government bodies. The technology is studied in academia and applied in industry - and this is a force multiplier for the people of Israel. In order to win the future campaign, the State of Israel needs advanced technology; This is our compass as a leading Israeli defense industry, to always be ahead of the enemy, to constantly anticipate a few steps ahead of him, and to develop the answer to the threat - even before the capability of this threat exists with him."
Dror Bin, CEO of the Innovation Authority: "Although quantum computing still has a long way to go before it matures, it holds tremendous technological potential to upgrade the computing power available to humanity and accelerate research and development processes in a way that has never been seen before. This power will dramatically affect science and the global high-tech industry. Israel, as the father of global innovation, must also be at the forefront of this technology and the launch of the first Israeli quantum computer, today, is an important milestone in this effort. The first Israeli quantum computer is not an isolated initiative but part of a broad strategy that we lead at the Innovation Authority to promote breakthrough technologies in a variety of fields. In this framework, the R&D laboratory for quantum computing in Tel Aviv was launched earlier this year, which is a central pillar of Israel's research and development infrastructure in this field. This activity is part of the national program for quantum computing and, together with other investments, aims to maintain Israel's technological leadership in order to preserve its competitiveness in the global high-tech industry and bring about continuous economic growth.'
