The Research Laboratory of Electronics (RLE) at MIT is proud to announce that Atlantic Quantum, an MIT-founded quantum computing startup, has joined Google Quantum AI. This collaboration marks a major milestone in the effort to scale superconducting quantum hardware and advance the global quantum computing ecosystem.
MIT-Founded Innovation Driving Quantum Hardware Breakthroughs
Atlantic Quantum was launched out of pioneering research at MIT’s RLE, where scientists and engineers have long led advances in superconducting qubits, cryogenic electronics, and quantum information science.
The company’s modular chip stack technology integrates qubits and superconducting control electronics within the cryogenic stage, dramatically improving scalability and performance for quantum processors. This innovative architecture will enable Google Quantum AI to more efficiently expand its superconducting quantum systems and accelerate progress toward a large-scale, error-corrected quantum computer.
Advancing the Future of Quantum Computing
By joining Google Quantum AI, Atlantic Quantum continues its mission to develop high-performance quantum hardware that bridges fundamental research and real-world applications. The partnership underscores the growing impact of MIT-based innovation on global technology and demonstrates the power of academic research to shape the future of computing.
As part of Google’s expanding investment in quantum research, Atlantic Quantum’s integration will help bring the world closer to solving problems that are currently beyond the reach of classical computing.
