QuiX Quantum Launches Bia™ Quantum Cloud Computing Service

Advancing Quantum Computing with practical near-term solutions via the Cloud. QuiX Quantum, the European leader in photonic quantum computing hardware, is proud to announce the launch of Bia™ Quantum Cloud Computing Service, its first Quantum as a Service (QaaS) platform for quantum and hybrid computing.

Bia™ Quantum Cloud Computing Service represents an important step forward for QuiX Quantum. While it provides immediate access to quantum computing directly to businesses and research institutions, Bia™ Quantum Cloud Computing Service also serves as a stepping stone in the effort of establishing the first hybrid quantum-classical computing platform based on photonics accessible via the Cloud.  

  

"We’re committed to both the near-term impact of quantum computing and the long-term goal of reshaping entire industries."said Dr.-Ing. Stefan Hengesbach, CEO of QuiX Quantum “and in this respect, Bia™Quantum Cloud Computing Service gives organizations a tangible way to leverage quantum technology today. As we continue to develop our universal quantum computer, our Cloud Service allows users to explore the power of quantum computing and solve specific problems right now." 

 

Bia™ is a near-term Quantum Computer designed to solve, natively, specific problems in both fundamental research and quantum simulations, like Boson Sampling, Quantum random walks and Quantum Monte Carlo simulations, respectively. Thanks to the remote integration of classical computing infrastructure with its native quantum hardware, Bia™ can also help in optimization problems and simulations for various industries by implementing variational quantum eingen solver (VQE) algorithms. 

 

George Gesek, CTO and co-founder QMware says "QMware's integration with QuiX Quantum’s photonic processor in Enschede marks a significant advancement in our hybrid quantum platform. This partnership gives our customers direct access to cutting-edge photonic quantum computing. QMware’s SDK basiq™ supports both, current analog algorithms as well as the upcoming gate-based implementations by QuiX Quantum, delivering on our mission to provide scalable, commercially viable quantum computing solutions, just as they emerge."  

 

About Bia™ : 
Bia™ is a near-term photonic quantum computing system that combines state-of-the-art technology and off-the-shelf components, such as a single-photons generation module (from 2 to 4 input single-photons simultaneously), a quantum processing unit (starting with 12 and upgradable to20 channels), a light detection module (up to 20 detectors), and advanced quantum control software. Bia™ is powered by QuiX Quantum award-winning Alquor®Quantum Photonic Processor, known for its ability to operate at room temperature,along with lowest losses and complete programmability.

About QuiX Quantum:
QuiX Quantum is the European leader in photonic quantum computing hardware, driving innovation with proven quality in the development of its Universal Quantum Computer. The first system, already sold and contracted for delivery, underscores the impact of QuiX Quantum’s market-leading hardware and renowned quality. This strong technological foundation positions the company to build the most powerful quantum computers. With five offices across Europe, QuiX Quantum continues to push the boundaries of quantum technology while serving a growing global customer base.

About QMware:
QMware stands as a leading provider of hybrid quantum computing cloud services, specializing in B2B Quantum as a Service. The company’s platform blends high-performance computing with advanced quantum resources, designed to augment today’s hyperscaler capabilities. Leveraging sophisticated quantum hypervisor technology, QMware manages data processing tasks, selecting the most appropriate system—classical or quantum—based on each task’s specific requirements. This strategic approach establishes QMware as a key enabler of early quantum computing solutions in the industry, catering to the growing demand for superior computing performance in optimization, simulation, and machine learning. As a member of the SeQuenC initiative, in 2022 QMware was selected to build the first quantum cloud for German industry. The project is funded by the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Protection. Further information can be found at qm-ware.com and LinkedIn.
