Equal 1: This Is How To Scale Quantum Computing - Jason Lynch, CEO

How do we scale quantum computing to solve real-world problems across industries like logistics, finance, and pharma? Jason Lynch, CEO of Equal1, joins us to discuss their groundbreaking approach to building scalable, cost-effective quantum computers using silicon technology. Discover how Equal1 is leveraging decades of semiconductor advancements to democratize quantum computing and drive innovation across multiple sectors. Jason Lynch is CEO of Equal 1, creators of the world's first hybrid quantum-classical computing chip, powering breakthrough rack-mounted quantum computers Equal1 wants to democratize quantum computing, making it accessible and affordable for all. Their thesis is simple: silicon has driven every major advancement in classical computing, and they believe it will do the same for quantum. They leverage trillions invested in semiconductor technology to develop scalable, cost-effective silicon spin qubits. They've produced successful test chips, patented unique IP, and achieved world-leading qubit performance, all on standard foundry processes.
