(News Bulletin 247) – Fundación Ikerbasque, the Basque Science Foundation of the Spanish Basque Country, and IBM today presented details of their partnership to make the Basque Country ‘a leading technology hub’.
The partnership includes the adoption of quantum computing through the launch of the IBM-Euskadi Quantum Computing Center, which will provide Qiskit execution services from a 127-qubit IBM Quantum System One located in San Sebastián and managed by IBM.
