Bloq Joins IBM Quantum Network to Build Quantum Algorithms at Utility Scale
Summarize this article with:
Insider Brief Bloq Quantum has joined the IBM Quantum Network startup program, becoming one of only three Indian startups in the global ecosystem and gaining cloud access to IBM’s advanced quantum computers. The company is building an end-to-end development platform that enables organizations to move from data to quantum deployment in a single environment, claiming up to 10 times faster solution development than traditional methods while stress-testing proprietary algorithms on 100-plus qubit systems. Through the partnership, Bloq aims to expand India’s quantum ecosystem by offering a unified workspace for the full quantum lifecycle and developing industry-focused algorithms in finance, automotive, healthcare and logistics. PRESS RELEASE — Bloq Quantum has joined the IBM Quantum Network startup program, becoming one of a select few Indian startups to enter this prestigious global ecosystem. As the third Indian startup to join the program, Bloq is poised to accelerate the development of its end-to-end development platform alongside a new suite of proprietary quantum algorithms. Through its membership, Bloq is exposed to IBM’s quantum network events to advance the startup’s plans to develop the quantum ecosystem. Separately, Bloq was also granted credits to access IBM’s fleet of advanced quantum computers over the cloud. From Data to Deployment: Elevating Quantum Performance At the core of Bloq’s offering is a development platform designed to let any company go from data to deployment on a quantum computer for their specific quantum solutions in one place. This unified environment allows for the creation of quantum solutions up to 10x faster than traditional methods. While the platform streamlines the technical workflow, Bloq is simultaneously building a portfolio of high-performance algorithms aimed at solving critical industry challenges in finance, automotive, healthcare, and logistics. Bloq intends to utilize IBM quantum computers in the cloud to stress-test these algorithms on utility-scale 100+ qubit quantum processors and ensure the algorithms are optimized for the current era. “Joining the IBM Quantum Network is a defining moment for our dual-track strategy. We are building a platform that makes quantum development seamless and the algorithms that make it valuable. Along with access to real IBM quantum hardware, this allows us to refine our upcoming algorithms and ensure our users have access to both an intuitive environment and cutting-edge algorithm power,” said Jay Patel, Co-Founder and CTO of Bloq Quantum. Advancing the Indian Quantum Landscape Bloq is entering India’s rapidly evolving deep-tech scene. By planning to provide a single workspace for the entire quantum lifecycle, from initial data processing to quantum processing unit (QPU) execution, Bloq aims to lower the technical hurdles for organizations looking to transition to quantum workflows. Bloq strives to be at the forefront of providing tangible “quantum utility” for the global market.
