Launch
IBM Deploys Quantum System Two at Hyde Park Labs to Anchor Illinois Quantum Ecosystem
Quantum Computing Report · By Mohamed Abdel-Kareem ·
The Brief
- IBM, the University of Chicago and the State of Illinois have deployed an on-premises IBM Quantum System Two in Chicago.
- The system is powered by IBM's 120-qubit Nighthawk processor and is initially housed at Hyde Park Labs.
- It will anchor the National Quantum Algorithm Center (NQAC) and support further Illinois quantum work.
Why it matters
A local, on-premises quantum computer gives researchers direct access to a 120-qubit system outside IBM's cloud, which can matter for algorithm research and for building a regional quantum research ecosystem.
Who’s affected
- Researchers working with the National Quantum Algorithm Center
- Quantum computing researchers in the Chicago and Illinois region
