Hey Everyone,

This is Quantum Founder Premium,

Not to be outdone, Boston based QuEra is taking a leap. It also represents an important milestone for neutral Atom Quantum computers.

QuEra Computing announced yesterday on November 1st, 2022 that Aquila, its neutral atom quantum computer, is now available via Amazon Braket, making it the first generally accessible neutral-atom machine.

Founded in 2018, QuEra is built on pioneering research recently conducted nearby at both Harvard University and MIT. They have clearly been busy behind the scenes, so in a sense this is a coming out party.

The company is founded on the pioneering research by world-renowned scientists Mikhail Lukin, Vladan Vuletic, and Markus Greiner at Harvard and MIT.
