NQCC's new centre will bring companies and academics together to accelerate progress towards delivering quantum computing at scale

The article from Physics World discusses the significant advancements in quantum computing within the UK, highlighted by the opening of the National Quantum Computing Centre (NQCC) at the STFC’s Rutherford Appleton Laboratory in Oxfordshire. This center aims to accelerate the development and adoption of quantum computing technologies. The NQCC will serve as a hub for collaboration between academia, industry, and government, focusing on building a quantum computer, developing software, and training a skilled workforce. Key points include the UK's ambition to lead in quantum technology, with investments like the £93m from the UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) to support quantum technology hubs. The article also mentions the involvement of major tech companies like Google, IBM, and Microsoft in the UK's quantum landscape, and the potential of quantum computing to solve complex problems in fields like drug discovery, climate modeling, and cybersecurity. The NQCC's establishment is seen as a pivotal moment for the UK to harness quantum computing's potential, fostering innovation and economic growth.
