The firm said in a statement that the new NVIDIA Accelerated Quantum Research Center would combine academic institutions and business partners to enable development of hybrid quantum algorithms and handle important issues such quantum error quantum-related simulations and algorithm testing, NVIDIA claims the center will use its GB200 NVL72 rack-scale systemsthe most powerful computing hardware available so far. These technologies will also enable low-latency control algorithms required for quantum error correction and let researchers increase the use of artificial intelligence in quantum the facility, academic partners Harvard University's Quantum Initiative in Science and Engineering and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology's Engineering Quantum Systems group will investigate next-generation quantum quantum and conventional computing technology might hasten developments in quantum error correction and practical applications, according to Harvard professor Mikhail Lukin co-director of the university's quantum project in the NVIDIA center will let researchers combine the company's accelerated computing tools with quantum processing units, or QPUs, to work on device characterization and hybrid software development, according MIT professor William Oliver, director of the university's Center for Quantum center will make use of NVIDIA's CUDA-Q development platform, intended to enable researchers to produce software linking graphics processing units with quantum computers, in order to assist such the quantum hardware partners engaged in the project, the business included Quantinuum, Quantum Machines and QuEra in 2025, NVIDIA said, the research center is likely to start running. The news came at the GTC event hosted by NVIDIA running until March 21.
