Alice & Bob
Alice & Bob is a French quantum computing startup developing quantum hardware and systems aimed at practical applications. The company has transitioned from primarily designing quantum chips to becoming a full systems provider with the launch of Helium, its first comprehensive quantum hardware platform. Helium represents a significant evolution in Alice & Bob's strategy to commercialize quantum computing technology.
The platform is designed to address one of quantum computing's central challenges: managing quantum errors that limit the reliability and scale of quantum systems. By bringing quantum computing capabilities into real-world environments like server rooms and research facilities, Alice & Bob is working to make quantum technology more accessible for practical applications. The company's shift to systems integration reflects the broader industry trend of quantum computing moving from research laboratories toward commercial and institutional deployment.
