French quantum computing company “Quandela” has identified South Korea as a long-term collaboration partner and unveiled a plan to foster the country as an Asian base for quantum computing manufacturing and research.
Quantum computers are a future strategic technology capable of solving types of problems that are impossible for conventional computers.
Founded in 2017, Quandela develops photonic quantum computers that generate, transmit, and process quantum information using photons, the particles of light.
Quandela Korea, which currently has three employees, plans to expand its workforce to around ten by next year.
A key technical challenge for today’s quantum computers is correcting the errors that inevitably occur during computation to ensure reliability.
