The first, with Canadian Microelectronics Corporation (CMC Microsystems), includes a memorandum of understanding (MOU) that allows IonQ to be a listed cloud quantum computing access provider for the Quantum Computing Sandbox (QCS), serving Canadian academics and SMEs.
Additionally, IonQ’s MOU with Sandia National Laboratories aims to advance U.S. national security through research in quantum information science. Finally, IonQ will invest $15 million over five years to establish the Tennessee Quantum Communications Research Center in Chattanooga, marking it as a dedicated lab for next-generation quantum communication connected to a real-world network.
