QMill

Earlier this week QMill announced a world record in quantum circuit compression. Impact Quantum talks about the achievement in its news article: ▪️ “Something big just happened in the world of quantum computing, and it’s the big that’s actually about making things smaller. QMill, a Finnish quantum algorithm company, has announced a breakthrough in quantum circuit compression, a discovery that makes quantum computations leaner, faster, and closer to real-world use.” ▪️ “This isn’t just about efficiency; it’s about shifting what’s possible. Quantum computing’s next frontier isn’t some distant “quantum advantage” milestone where quantum systems outperform classical ones. It’s about making sure today’s hardware can run complex algorithms reliably. QMill’s focus on circuit compression moves that goal from theory into reach.” ▪️ “Quantum breakthroughs can sound abstract, but this one feels tangible. It reminds us that innovation often isn’t about adding layers of complexity. It’s about refining, simplifying, and finding clarity within the noise.” Read the article: https://lnkd.in/dfuCszUJ #QuantumComputing #AI #QuantumAlgorithms #QMill #CircuitCompression #NISQ #DeepTech

QMill sets a world record in quantum circuit compression! We are proud to share that QMill has developed a record-setting method for compressing quantum circuits, bringing useful quantum computations closer in time. ▪️ Today’s quantum hardware — NISQ systems — struggle with lengthy computations due to noise and decoherence, which cause errors to accumulate. Because of limited coherence time, qubits decohere before deep circuits can finish executing, making scalability and quantum advantage difficult to achieve. ▪️ To address this, quantum circuits must be compressed to use fewer elementary gates while preserving their functionality. QMill’s new AI-based method significantly reduces gate counts, helping to circumvent the major obstacles posed by today’s noisy hardware. For example, one of these circuits was compressed to just half the size of the previous best result.

QMill had the opportunity to participate in the panel discussion “From Algorithm to Advantage” on the final day of the Quantum World Congress. The session was chaired by Outi Keski-Äijö from Business Finland and brought together voices from across the quantum ecosystem. Our CEO Hannu Kauppinen joined the conversation alongside panelists from IQM Quantum Computers, Quanscient, and Haiqu. The discussion focused on the practical path toward quantum advantage — and what it means for industry. As Hannu noted: ▪️ “Quantum advantage is reached when a useful problem – one that has business value for customers – is solved faster on a quantum computer than a classical one. We will arrive at quantum advantage piece by piece.” ▪️ “Quantum advantage is the most important goal for this industry, more so than incremental improvements alone.” ▪️ “Now is the time to start investing into algorithms, not wait for fault-tolerant quantum computing.” At QMill, we are developing quantum algorithms that deliver real-world value for industrial applications. Our focus is on solutions that match customer needs, with performance targets such as 10 000 gate operations at gate fidelities of 99.99% and broad availability of such quantum computing infrastructure. The Quantum World Congress offered a clear snapshot of the global quantum landscape. We met with numerous customers and stakeholders, and it was great to see the Finnish delegation making a strong impact. - Big thank you to Team Finland and the delegation leads for organizing!
