Pasqal’s vision for 2026 centers on accelerating scientific and industrial innovation by making quantum computing accessible at scale via cloud access, and HPC deployments. We will also demonstrate quantum advantage and launch our next-generation products. Quantum Enablement at Scale This transformation begins with broader and more reliable access. Last year, two Pasqal QPUs were already inaugurated and are now up and running at the Jülich Supercomputing Centre (JSC) in Germany and the Très Grand Centre de Calcul (TGCC) CEA in France. Multiple QPUs are already live on Pasqal Cloud and on major hyperscalers such as Azure Quantum, Google Marketplace, OVHcloud and Scaleway, making our neutral-atom processors available to users where they work today. At the same time, installations at Aramco in Saudi Arabia, CINECA in Italy and DistriQ in Canada bring cryogenics-free systems into enterprises and national supercomputing centers, serving academic teams advancing fundamental science as well as industrial innovation. This combination of cloud and on-premise deployments both widens access and demonstrates the reproducibility and reliability of our technology: the direct outcome of our industrialization strategy over the past years. Quantum Advantage by mid-2026 Our objective for the coming months, before mid-2026, is to demonstrate measurable quantum advantage on a pratical problem where our processors deliver superior performance. Rigorous benchmarking of classical methods and refined QPU noise models position us perfectly for this milestone. Materials discovery is paving the way to quantum advantage, with the potential to accelerate R&D for next‑gen batteries, clean‑energy catalysts, and a deeper understanding of quantum matter phenomena. Next-Gen of Pasqal’s Quantum Computers Pasqal’s next-generation quantum processing unit, Vela, will launch in 2026 with over 256 high-quality qubits. It arrives as the first QPU engineered for quantum advantage specifications, outperforming classical systems on practical problems. Vela opens a whole new range of use cases to researchers, with a step in terms of quality and interpretability of the results, notably with the increased qubit capacity, a strong reduction of QPU noise and local detuning capability. Local detuning enables precise control of individual atoms, unlocking quantum simulations for advanced materials modeling that are extremely challenging for classical computers. It also powers tough optimizations for supply chains or networks design, reliably hitting optimal solutions at much larger scales. Vela delivers much higher stability, industry-standard monitoring for easier maintenance and HPC integration, and all-to-all connectivity with no cryogenics: production-ready quantum for mission-critical work.
Logical Qubits Advance to Real-World Impact Pasqal first demonstrated logical qubits on neutral-atom hardware in 2025. In early 2026, we achieved a live demo of building logical qubits with customers and partners, proving they can be produced routinely on our reliable platform. In 2026, these fault-tolerant building blocks will deliver first real-world applications, bridging proof of concept today to full fault tolerance tomorrow.
The Year Ahead—Join Us Stay tuned throughout 2026 to see these milestones unfold in real time: from quantum advantage proofs to Vela’s launch and logical qubit applications powering live industry use cases.
