Quantinuum’s full-stack capability, including System H2, the most powerful quantum computer in the world, unlocks the value of AI
Quantinuum, a global leader in quantum computing and the developer of the world’s highest-performing quantum computer, is set to collaborate with NVIDIA as a founding partner at the NVIDIA Accelerated Quantum Computing Research Center (NVAQC). Expected to commence operations later this year, the center will drive quantum computing advancements to address some of the world’s most complex challenges.
As part of this collaboration, the NVAQC will leverage the NVIDIA CUDA-Q platform and a state-of-the-art NVIDIA GB200 NVL72 supercomputer, integrated with Quantinuum’s cutting-edge System H2. With a record-breaking 2,097,152 Quantum Volume—surpassing all other available quantum systems—System H2 provides unmatched computational power for next-generation quantum research.
Pioneering the Future of Scalable Quantum Computing
Quantinuum’s quantum computing architecture is designed for unparalleled speed and efficiency, positioning it at the forefront of the industry. The company is on track to launch the first 100-logical-qubit system by 2027, featuring industry-leading error rates. Looking further ahead, Quantinuum aims to deliver commercially scalable quantum computers with hundreds of logical qubits by the end of the decade.
These ambitious goals build upon recent breakthroughs, including the development of the most reliable and high-quality logical qubits and overcoming scalability barriers in ion-trap quantum computing. With a commercial system boasting greater than 99.9% two-qubit gate fidelity, Quantinuum continues to push the boundaries of quantum computing capabilities.

Expanding the CUDA-Q Collaboration
Quantinuum’s collaboration with NVIDIA dates back to 2022, when it became the first company to integrate CUDA-Q into its quantum systems. This partnership has since fueled advancements in quantum application development and Quantum Error Correction (QEC). Currently, users of CUDA-Q can access Quantinuum’s System H1 QPU and emulator for a 90-day trial. Future Quantinuum systems will remain fully compatible with the CUDA-Q platform and accessible via the NVAQC, driving wider adoption of Generative Quantum AI (Gen QAI).
Revolutionizing AI with Generative Quantum AI
Last month, Quantinuum unveiled its groundbreaking Generative Quantum AI (Gen QAI) system, which leverages data generated by quantum computing to enhance AI model fidelity. This breakthrough enables AI systems to solve previously intractable problems, setting a new benchmark for AI training and real-world applications across various industries.
“By combining NVIDIA’s AI hardware and software solutions with leading and differentiated solutions from Quantinuum, we’re unlocking unprecedented solutions and accelerating Generative Quantum AI’s adoption across diverse markets,” said Dr. Rajeeb Hazra, President and CEO of Quantinuum.
“Progress toward useful quantum computing hinges on new discoveries,” said Tim Costa, Senior Director of CAE, Quantum, and CUDA-X at NVIDIA. “The NVAQC will fast-track the development of useful quantum devices, being the epicenter for breakthroughs made with partners like Quantinuum.”
Through this strategic collaboration, Quantinuum and NVIDIA are paving the way for a future where quantum computing and AI converge to solve the world’s most complex computational challenges.
