IonQ (NYSE: IONQ) has announced its intention to acquire Lightsynq Technologies, a Boston-based quantum technology startup. The acquisition aims to accelerate IonQ's quantum computing and networking capabilities through Lightsynq's photonic interconnect technology and quantum memory expertise. Founded by former Harvard University experts, Lightsynq brings a portfolio of over 20 technology patents and applications related to quantum memory.
The strategic acquisition will enhance IonQ's ability to scale quantum networks through quantum repeaters and increase quantum computing power via photonic interconnects. The integration of Lightsynq's technology is expected to enable IonQ to achieve quantum computers with 10,000s and ultimately millions of qubits. This move follows IonQ's recent acquisitions of Qubitekk and ID Quantique, along with partnerships with defense organizations and the development of the first quantum computing and networking hub in Chattanooga, TN.
IonQ (IONQ) has completed its acquisition of a controlling stake in ID Quantique (IDQ), a global leader in quantum-safe networking and quantum detection systems. The strategic acquisition enhances IonQ's quantum networking capabilities and expands its product portfolio to include IDQ's quantum key distribution systems, quantum random number generators, and single-photon detectors.
The deal adds nearly 300 patents to IonQ's portfolio, bringing their total to over 900 patents. IDQ's technologies have been implemented in quantum-safe networks globally, including projects in Singapore, South Korea, and the European Union. This acquisition follows IonQ's recent momentum in quantum networking, including the Qubitekk acquisition and a $22 million deal with EPB to establish the first quantum computing and networking hub in the U.S.
IonQ (IONQ) has appointed Jordan Shapiro as President and General Manager of Quantum Networking, effective immediately. Shapiro, previously Vice President of Financial Planning & Analysis, Corporate Development and Investor Relations, joined IonQ's executive team in 2020 after investing in the company during its early stages. With two engineering degrees from Stanford University, he has been instrumental in expanding IonQ's quantum networking business through strategic acquisitions of Qubitekk and a majority stake in ID Quantique.
Under CEO Niccolo de Masi's leadership, this appointment reflects IonQ's commitment to building critical infrastructure for the quantum internet and advancing quantum-secure communications. Shapiro will focus on integrating recent acquisitions and strengthening IonQ's position in the quantum networking sector.
IonQ (NYSE: IONQ) has announced a $22M partnership with EPB to establish Chattanooga, Tennessee as the first quantum computing and networking hub in the U.S. The collaboration includes installing an IonQ Forte Enterprise quantum computer at the EPB Quantum Center, making EPB the first utility company globally to offer commercial quantum computing services.
The partnership involves IonQ establishing a local office to provide quantum computing support and training, with both companies collaborating on developing quantum algorithms for energy grid optimization. The Forte Enterprise system features an algorithmic qubit count of #AQ36 and industry-leading gate accuracy, designed for tackling complex commercial applications.
This expansion adds to IonQ's global presence, with existing systems in Basel, Switzerland, Rome, NY, and data centers in Maryland, Washington state, and Switzerland. The initiative builds on IonQ's existing partnerships in Tennessee, including collaborations with the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga and Oak Ridge National Laboratory.
