The National Quantum Computing Centre (NQCC) announces an agreement with IBM for the center to provide UK researchers with cloud access to IBM Quantum's Premium Plan, including IBM's fleet of quantum computing systems, with the aim to drive new research directions based on the use of quantum computing.
Through this initiative, and by joining the IBM Quantum Network, the NQCC further spearheads their vision to enable the UK to solve some of the most complex and challenging problems facing society by harnessing the potential of quantum computing.
The NQCC is a co-sponsored program by the Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC) and the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC). Its objective is to drive new research horizons by serving the UK academic, research, and public sector communities to enable proof-of-concept projects, feasibility studies and discovery-led science.
