If there was any doubt that quantum computing has entered a new commercial phase, this week removed it.</p>https://this-week-in-quantum.org/posts/issue-009/Sun, 03 May 2026 12:00:00 +0200https://this-week-in-quantum.org/posts/issue-009/<p>Welcome back to <strong>This Week in Quantum</strong> - your weekly digest of the most important news from the world of quantum computing.</p> <p>The week of April 27 - May 3 was defined by bold infrastructure bets and genuine scientific breakthroughs. IBM is building factories for fault-tolerant systems, IonQ is deploying real quantum-safe networks, and physicists are directly imaging phenomena that were theoretical just years ago. Let&rsquo;s get into it.</p>https://this-week-in-quantum.org/posts/issue-008/Sun, 26 Apr 2026 12:11:18 +0200https://this-week-in-quantum.org/posts/issue-008/<p>Welcome back to <strong>This Week in Quantum</strong> — your weekly digest of the most important news from the world of quantum computing.</p> <p>The week of April 20–26 brought a mix of loud industry partnerships, security warnings, and solid scientific results. Let&rsquo;s get into it.</p>https://this-week-in-quantum.org/posts/issue-006/Sun, 12 Apr 2026 13:50:42 -0400https://this-week-in-quantum.org/posts/issue-006/<p>This week the quantum threat to encryption moved from abstract to urgent — Google and a startup published papers suggesting Q-Day may arrive sooner than anyone expected. Meanwhile, hardware milestones kept coming: Rigetti crossed 100 qubits on AWS, India built one of the longest QKD networks in the world, and researchers in Innsbruck demonstrated fault-tolerant computation without mid-circuit measurements.</p>https://this-week-in-quantum.org/posts/issue-005/Sun, 05 Apr 2026 14:44:30 +0200https://this-week-in-quantum.org/posts/issue-005/<p>Welcome to the third issue of <strong>This Week in Quantum</strong> — a weekly digest of the most important news, research, and developments in the world of quantum computing.</p> <p>This week will go down in history. Two independent studies published on March 30 have shaken our assumptions about how close we are to the moment quantum computers threaten today&rsquo;s encryption. Meanwhile, the industry shows no signs of slowing down — new funding rounds, hardware breakthroughs, and billion-dollar government investments.</p>
