About
The IBM Quantum Network is IBM's global ecosystem program and startup incubator, built to be a leading quantum computing partner network. It provides enterprises, startups, academic institutions, and government organizations with access to IBM quantum hardware, Qiskit software tools, quantum expertise, and an active community for quantum computing education and application development. In July 2025, IBM and the University of Chicago announced a partnership to support Duality Quantum Accelerator startups with resources including access to the IBM Quantum System Two planned for deployment at the Illinois Quantum and Microelectronics Park (IQMP). In February 2026, IBM Ventures made direct investments in two quantum software startups: SQK, which develops medical imaging quantum algorithms, and QodeX Quantum, which builds quantum-native AI. IBM hosts Startup Demo Days and Startup Office Hours for Quantum Network members building applications with Qiskit. The network includes hundreds of institutions worldwide across industry, research, and government. IBM also runs enterprise quantum accelerator programs and quantum-ready assessment tools to help enterprises identify quantum use cases.
