C12 a deep tech innovator based in Europe, developing next, generation spin qubit quantum processors, has formed a strategic integration partnership with Classiq, a leading provider of enterprise, grade quantum computing software. The partnership will connect scalable quantum hardware with capable quantum software, making quantum technology more accessible to both researchers and enterprise developers.
C12’s quantum processor technology leverages ultra-pure carbon nanotubes a nearly one-dimensional material that delivers record coherence and exceptionally low noise. This focus on material purity supports scalable system architectures by combining high qubit quality with reliable interconnectivity, positioning C12’s approach as a promising platform for real-world quantum applications.

Classiqs software platform enables developers to model, create, and optimize quantum circuits using its high, level synthesis engine. In addition to this integration, Classiq now offers access to a wide range of QPU (quantum processing unit) modalities, such as superconducting, ion, trap, neutral atom, cat, and now spin qubits, together with top, notch simulators from NVIDIA and Intel.
These two companies are committed to making it easier for developers to build, test, update, and scale quantum applications both in terms of hardware and software.
Integration Enhances Developer Access to Realistic Quantum Hardware Models
As part of the collaboration, Classiq now supports C12’s Callisto a digital twin that mirrors the performance and noise characteristics of C12’s in-development spin qubit hardware. The Callisto Discovery edition models up to 13 noisy qubits and incorporates real physical parameters such as phonon noise, charge noise, qubit relaxation, mid-circuit measurement, and noisy initialization. Developers can employ Classiq’s Qmod language and synthesis engine to design, compile, and validate quantum algorithms on this platform, aligning today’s research with tomorrow’s hardware capabilities.
Executive Perspectives on the Partnership
“At C12, we believe quantum computing must move beyond theory and become a practical accelerator for the most demanding computational challenges,” said Pierre Desjardins, C12’s CEO. “By working with Classiq, we empower developers today to harness tomorrow’s hardware, bridging the divide between breakthrough quantum hardware technology and usable quantum software.”
“Partnering with C12 to integrate an architecture that is dedicated to the highest quality qubits brings exciting new options to quantum developers. Our joint solution creates a scalable framework from C12’s Callisto digital twin to their future quantum devices,” said Nir Minerbi, CEO and co-founder of Classiq. “Hardware diversity is increasing rapidly, and ensuring developers have access is more important than ever.”
