Quantinuum pushes quantum frontiers with ‘Helios’ launch

Helios and new R&D hub to advance quantum computing in pharma and finance.

Quantinuum has established a new R&D and Operations Centre in Singapore, marking its formal expansion into the city, the company announced in a statement.

The centre will support collaboration with local researchers and industry partners across pharmaceuticals, materials science, finance, and other sectors, the company said.

The company also plans to deploy its Helios quantum computer in Singapore later this year, it said, with the deployment and new centre intended to deepen engagement with Singapore’s research and innovation ecosystem.

Quantinuum said the centre’s establishment is supported by the Singapore Economic Development Board and builds on its collaboration with the National Quantum Office through the National Quantum Computing Hub under the National Quantum Strategy.

Quantinuum said it is working with local startups, including Entropica through its Startup Partner Program, and has signed a memorandum of understanding with Squareroot8 to co-develop quantum communications applications.

The centre will bring Quantinuum staff together with local researchers and industry partners to co‑develop quantum computing solutions and support workforce and capability building in Singapore

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
