Membership Benefits
Committed industry and government members will provide funding to the center’s researchers and will obtain early access to findings applicable to their organizations.
“The CQT is a unique NSF quantum program which is inclusive of nearly all quantum computing systems (annealing, gate and hybrid computing) along with other types of quantum technologies. We at D-Wave find this program very exciting. Our team sees great value working directly with students and professors involved in CQT projects, and we have created new commercial relationships with other Industry Advisory Board members. We believe this is one of the top U.S. quantum programs, as it brings together academia, industry and government to advance quantum information science.”
