Recently, rigetti UK Limited announced the first 32 qubit quantum computer deployed in the UK. The aforementioned company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of rigetti, a quantum computing company, located in the UK. The delivery of quantum computers will help to achieve a key goal of the quantum computing alliance led by rigetti, that is, to accelerate the commercialization of quantum computing in the UK. Previously, the Quantum Computing Alliance planned to get 10million pounds of funding support, including the UK government quantum technology challenge project led by the UK National Research and Innovation Agency (ukri). Rigetti will work with Oxford Instruments, Edinburgh University, Standard Chartered Bank and phasecraft, a British quantum software company, to promote the practical application of quantum computers in machine learning, material simulation and finance.
