The race is on to build a useful quantum computer
There has never been a better time to be in the quantum computing business. 鈥淪ome 10 years ago, it was not obvious that quantum computing was more than an interesting lab experiment. Since then, an entire globalised ecosystem has emerged,鈥 says at French quantum computing start-up Alice & Bob, one of hundreds of firms in the sector. at Microsoft puts it even more succinctly: 鈥淨uantum computers are working.鈥
