“It is well known in academic research that quantum computing cannot become useful by monolithically scaling it to 10s of millions of qubits—that is not practical,” said Nejabati. “It seems, at least with the current technology, it is more realistic to build a network of smaller quantum computers. And essentially you develop the notion of the data center—that is we build a network connecting a large number of smaller processors in a controlled environment, the data center warehouse, and provide them as a service to a larger user base. That’s the basic definition of a quantum data center.”
Rigetti Computing, Inc. (NASDAQ: RGTI, RGTIW), a pioneer in full-stack quantum-classical computing, recently announced that it successfully completed sales of $100 million gross proceeds of its common equity offering program. Rigetti immediately followed up by announcing another $100 million registered direct offering, while intending to use the funds generated by the previous fund raising for working capital, capital expenditures and other general corporate purposes, including continuing to focus on its strategy as a leader in superconducting quantum computing and continuing to work to improve its 2-qubit gate fidelity and scale towards higher qubit count systems.
“We are pleased to see the enthusiasm for the quantum computing sector and our company,” said Dr. Subodh Kulkarni, CEO of Rigetti. “We are seeing a great deal of interest from national labs and academic institutions for on-premises quantum computers to pursue hands-on R&D.
