Building such an ecosystem is based on Poland’s recognized, rich traditions in the fields of quantum physics, mathematics and computer science.”The machine will serve a broad range of users, from the industry to academia, while strengthening Poland’s position within the European quantum ecosystem.“The installation of the IQM Radiance 54-qubit quantum computer in our data center is a turning point not only for Galaxy, but for the entire Polish digital economy. By choosing IQM’s superconducting technologies, we are committing to full technological sovereignty—having such advanced infrastructure on-site in Poland allows us to become independent of external cloud providers and guarantees the highest level of security for processed data as well as the development of algorithms and applications,” said Jacek Michalski, CEO of Galaxy Systemy Informatyczne. “Thanks to the development of quantum technologies, research laboratories will be established for business and science in the broadest sense.”With this deployment, IQM continues to demonstrate its commercial leadership to deliver real quantum computers to customers and build local quantum ecosystems with open and transparent hardware and software.The company has sold 21 quantum systems to 13 customers globally to date, more than any other manufacturer.IQM Quantum Computers is a global leader in superconducting quantum computers, delivering full-stack quantum systems and cloud platform access to research institutions, universities, high-performance computing centres, and national laboratories worldwide. IQM’s on-premises deployment model gives customers direct ownership and control of their quantum infrastructure. Founded in 2018, headquartered in Finland, it has over 350 employees. IQM operates across Europe, Asia, and North America and has announced its plans to become the first publicly listed European quantum company on a major U.S. stock exchange with a dual listing on the Helsinki Stock Exchange also under consideration.Galaxy Systemy Informatyczne sp. z o.o. has been operating in the IT market for 30 years; the experience gained over the years helps us create projects in various fields of IT, security, defense, energy, finance, and space technology. Our experience in designing high-performance computing (HPC) clusters has allowed us to bring together many talented individuals who create and implement ideas on a global scale of modernity. https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260407351934/en/ContactsEmail:Mobile: +358 (0) 50 479 0845Postmedia is committed to maintaining a lively but civil forum for discussion.
