Quantum Art to Advance Scalable Quantum Computing Through Logical Qubit Compiler and NVIDIA CUDA-Q Integration
Integration of the Company's logical-qubit compiler with NVIDIA CUDA-Q unlocks new levels of performance and scalability for hybrid quantum-classical applications, accelerating the path to quantum advantage. NESS ZIONA, Israel, June 11, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Quantum Art a developer of full-stack quantum computers based on trapped-ion qubits and a proprietary scale-up architecture, today announced the integration of NVIDIA CUDA-Q hybrid quantum-classical platform into its advanced circuit compiler for logical qubits. The integration aims to advance the performance of scalable quantum computing real-world applications. The integration pairs Quantum Art's Logical Qubit Compiler which utilizes its unique Multi-qubit gates and Multi-Core architecture with NVIDIA CUDA-Q, an open-source hybrid quantum-classical computing platform, enabling developers to run applications across QPUs, CPUs, and GPUs. By combining Quantum Art's compiler, which is optimized for low circuit depth and scalable performance, with NVIDIA's expertise in multi-core orchestration and developer enablement, the combination lays critical groundwork for the advancement of real-world quantum use cases. The integration of Quantum Art's compiler and NVIDIA CUDA-Q is expected to incorporate significant reduction in circuit depth and better performance due to its favourable multi-qubit and reconfigurable multi-core operation. Initial results on the physical layer already show better scaling (N vs. N2 code lines), and an effective improvement of up to 25% in the log of Quantum Volume circuits, inducing much shallower circuits with significant performance. The significance is the ability to increase Quantum Volume dramatically, by using this compiler on such quantum hardware systems. A key objective is to realize synthesis and optimization of quantum circuits at the ~200 logical qubit level, a scale aligned with emerging commercial use cases. Measurable performance improvements in circuit depth, T-gate count, and the number of required core reconfigurations will be analyzed. Quantum Volume will serve as the system-level benchmark to evaluate the overall effectiveness and scalability of the combined platform. 'We're excited to work with NVIDIA, the leader in next-generation computing infrastructure, to combine our complementary strengths and accelerate the future of scalable quantum computing,' said Dr. Tal David, CEO of Quantum Art. 'Our trapped-ion qubits and proprietary multi-core architecture offer an unmatched scaling opportunity which is addressing the #1 challenge of quantum computers as the industry moves towards commercialization. Our compiler integration into CUDA-Q will enable developers to develop and optimize meaningful quantum applications at scale.' 'The CUDA-Q platform is built to accelerate breakthroughs in quantum computing by building on the successes of AI supercomputing', said Sam Stanwyck, Group Product Manager for quantum computing at NVIDIA. 'Quantum Art's integration of CUDA-Q with their compiler is a prime example of how impressive performance improvements in quantum research are being found at the intersection of quantum and classical hardware'. This work marks another milestone in Quantum Art's broader efforts to scale quantum computing through its trapped-ion systems, multi-qubit gates, and dynamically reconfigurable multi-core architecture. These innovations address the core challenge of scaling to thousands, and eventually millions of qubits to provide substantial commercial value. This integration advances Quantum's vision of achieving commercial quantum advantage and unlocking new capabilities in fields such as materials discovery, logistics, and energy systems. About Quantum Art Quantum Art Ltd., headquartered in Ness Ziona, Israel, specializes in the development of scalable quantum computers based on trapped-ion qubits. Quantum Art's innovative architecture enables multi-core quantum processors with unparalleled performance and efficiency.

Powering Sustainable Trade: DP World's Global Blueprint for a Net-Zero Future
At DP World, sustainability is not a 'nice to have' initiative – it is foundational to how we build trade infrastructure, operate globally, and deliver impact locally. As the effects of climate change intensify, our responsibility is twofold: to reduce emissions across operations and to build resilience in the communities and ecosystems we serve. From South America to the Horn of Africa, DP World is not just reducing emissions – we're rewriting what climate leadership looks like for global corporations. Setting the Course: DP World's Net-Zero Roadmap To tackle the climate crisis with ambition and accountability, DP World committed to a clearly defined and science-based decarbonization pathway. With 2022 established as our base year for tracking emissions, we set a 2030 target to reduce Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 42% and Scope 3 emissions by 28%. By 2050, the goal is net-zero emissions across the full lifecycle of our end-to-end shipping and logistics services. This will be achieved through equipment electrification and efficiency, digitalization of processes, renewable energy use, low-carbon fuel production, and carbon compensation to offset unavoidable footprints. Turning Strategy into Impact: DP World's Track Record of Results These environmental goals are built on a long history of sustainable operations in communities and regions across the world. Through partnerships spanning the nonprofit, government, and private sector, we have delivered results, including: Leading Trade Toward a Sustainable Future As the climate crisis escalates, DP World is stepping forward with solutions that are bold, inclusive, and scalable. Our approach delivers tangible climate benefits while positioning trade as a force for sustainability and resilience. The road to net zero isn't linear. But with the right partnerships, the right policies, and a deep sense of purpose – DP World is reshaping the global energy system from our position at the world's trade gateways.
