BTQ Technologies' QPerfect Subsidiary and the University of Strasbourg Partner to Support France's First Public Neutral-Atom Quantum Computing Platform
Rhea-AI Summary
BTQ Technologies (Nasdaq: BTQ) announced that its wholly owned subsidiary QPerfect has entered into a research collaboration with the University of Strasbourg to support aQCess, France's first publicly accessible neutral-atom quantum computing platform targeting more than 400 qubits.
Under the partnership, QPerfect is building a hardware-accurate digital twin of the aQCess processor using its MIMIQ™ simulation platform. The cloud-based twin will replicate the processor’s native gates, instruction set, atom transport operations and experimentally characterized noise, and will be deployed both on premises at CESQ and as a cloud service to let users design, test and validate workloads before and alongside runs on the physical hardware.

QPerfect joins the aQCess team to build a hardware-accurate digital twin of the processor with MIMIQ™ as a tool to accelerate quantum software R&D
Led by co-coordinators Shannon Whitlock and Guido Pupillo at the Centre Européen de Sciences Quantiques ("CESQ"), part of the Institut de Science et d'Ingénierie Supramoléculaires ("ISIS"), a joint laboratory of the University of
Under the partnership, QPerfect is building a hardware-accurate digital twin of the aQCess quantum processor using its MIMIQ™ simulation platform. The collaboration brings QPerfect's software stack into direct contact with a sovereign European quantum computing initiative supported by the French National Strategy for Quantum Technologies, reinforcing BTQ's broader strategy of developing technologies across quantum software, hardware and secure network infrastructure.
The first joint project delivers a cloud-based, hardware-accurate quantum digital twin of the aQCess processor. The digital twin replicates the machine at the circuit level, including its native gate set, instruction set architecture, atom transport operations and experimentally characterized noise, acting as a virtual backend that mirrors the real hardware. Built on MIMIQ™ and deployed both on premises at CESQ and as a cloud accessible service, it lets research teams and end users design, test and validate quantum workloads against an accurate model of the machine before and alongside running on the physical system.
Co-located in the same building and sharing a scientific heritage and research agenda, QPerfect and the aQCess team bring the simulation, compilation and error correction software stack into direct contact with neutral atom hardware as it comes online. This proximity gives QPerfect a hardware-accurate view of a real, scaling quantum system and supports BTQ's objective of building trusted quantum technologies that can move beyond theory and into real infrastructure. The scientific effort is led by Guido Masella for QPerfect and Stanimir Kondov for CESQ.

"Every major shift in computing is won or lost at the interface between hardware and the software that makes it usable. I lived that with the transition to public key cryptography, and we are at exactly that point in quantum computing today," said Philippe Blot, Chief Executive Officer of QPerfect. "Working shoulder to shoulder with the aQCess team gives us something rare: a hardware accurate view of a real, scaling neutral atom machine. That is how we make MIMIQ™ a faithful digital twin, and how we sharpen the compilation and error correction software, including our Quantum Logic Unit, QLU™, that we are building for neutral atom systems as they scale toward 400 qubits and beyond."
