QCi also signed a commercial agreement with INmune Bio, its first pharmaceutical and biotechnology customer, to explore quantum optimization applications using clinical and biomedical data.
Quantum Computing (Nasdaq: QUBT) announced that management will participate in two investor conferences in November 2026 in Miami and New York City.
The Cantor Convergence: 4th Annual Crypto, FinTech, AI & Energy Infrastructure Conference is on November 11 in Miami. BMO's inaugural Technology and Innovation Leaders Conference is on November 12 in New York City.
Quantum Computing (Nasdaq: QUBT) will host its third-quarter results and company update call on November 9, 2026, at 4:30 p.m. Eastern Time. The company will release its third-quarter 2026 financial results after the market closes that day. The call and webcast will review operational progress for the quarter ended September 30, 2026. A teleconference replay will be available until November 23, 2026.
INmune Bio (INMB) and Quantum Computing (QUBT) announced a collaboration to explore potential new applications for INmune Bio's investigational Alzheimer's treatment XPro. The work combines INmune Bio's preclinical research and data from four clinical trials with QCi's Dirac-3S quantum optimization machine, artificial intelligence and conventional analytics. The companies intend to identify treatment-response biomarkers and prioritize potential disease indications, with INmune Bio initially focusing on rare diseases.
The Stage 1 engagement marks QCi's first commercial customer in pharmaceutical and biotechnology markets; the agreement includes options for additional work. The companies plan to compare quantum optimization with conventional statistical and machine-learning methods to test where it adds value. They also aim to establish a repeatable discovery process for additional datasets and potential indications.
Quantum Computing (QUBT) will participate in the Maxim Growth Summit 2026 on October 13 at the Hard Rock Hotel in New York City. Chief Executive Officer Dr. Yuping Huang and Chief Financial Officer Chris Roberts will attend and be available for one-on-one meetings during the conference. Interested participants can contact their Maxim representative or register for the conference to schedule a meeting.
Quantum Computing (QUBT) announced Dirac-3S, its next-generation quantum optimization machine, with the first customer shipment expected in November 2026.
The system demonstrated configurations supporting up to 9,980 variables with one Expansion Module, compared with the current system's 1,000-variable capacity. Its modular design accommodates additional Expansion Modules. QCi said its benchmark testing found optimal solutions across all tested synthetic problems with known global optima ranging from 2,000 to 9,980 variables. The company also advanced its hardware architecture, manufacturing processes and supply chain to support increased production volumes and broader commercial deployment.
Quantum Computing Inc. (QUBT) will debut an integrated quantum security platform combining encryption and authentication at the ECOC Exhibition 2026 in Málaga, Spain, from September 21–23.
At Booth #1436, the company plans live demonstrations of quantum-secure communication solutions using time-frequency and polarization-based approaches, integrating high-dimensional quantum key distribution (QKD), hardware-based Quantum Identity Authentication (QIA), direct entanglement verification and key management in a telecom-compatible, room-temperature architecture. QIA is based on QCi’s patented zero-knowledge proof technology, protected in the United States and more than 40 other countries and recognized with the 44th Edison Patent Award. QCi will also showcase flexible quantum instrumentation for measurement and metrology and advanced photonics components, and will present on quantum-authenticated communications in ECOC’s Product Focus Theatre.
Quantum Computing Inc. (QUBT) signed a three-year Framework Agreement with Hamad Bin Khalifa University (HBKU) in Qatar to collaborate on quantum computing, quantum sensing, and quantum communications.
The partnership focuses on joint academic research, executive education, industry-focused projects, applications development, and co-marketing to accelerate quantum technology adoption in Qatar and internationally. QCi will provide HBKU with on‑cloud access to its Dirac‑3 entropy‑based quantum optimization system and install a Dirac‑3 platform in Qatar, giving students, researchers, and industry partners hands‑on access to quantum technologies and supporting workforce development and regional quantum leadership.
Quantum Computing Inc. (Nasdaq: QUBT) announced that CEO Dr. Yuping Huang and CFO Chris Roberts will attend the Lake Street Capital Markets 10th Annual Best Ideas Growth (Big10) Conference on September 10 at the Metropolitan Club in New York City, participating in one-on-one investor meetings.
Quantum Computing (Nasdaq: QUBT) reported Q2 2026 revenue of $5.6 million, up sharply from $61 thousand a year ago and from $3.7 million in Q1, driven mainly by photonics product sales across government, educational and commercial customers.
