QuEra Computing emerged from groundbreaking research at Harvard University and MIT to commercialize neutral atom quantum computing technology, developing programmable quantum simulators and quantum computers with unprecedented flexibility. In August 2025, QuEra formed a strategic alliance with Deloitte to accelerate enterprise adoption of neutral-atom quantum computing, combining QuEra’s hardware platforms with Deloitte’s professional services expertise to target life sciences, financial services, logistics, and energy sectors. In October 2025, QuEra announced a partnership with BCG X, Boston Consulting Group’s AI Science Institute, to accelerate quantum value delivery for enterprises and government innovators. The company’s platform uses arrays of neutral atoms trapped in optical tweezers, allowing for dynamic reconfiguration of qubit connectivity and analog quantum simulation capabilities. QuEra’s systems have achieved significant milestones including 256-qubit quantum simulations and demonstrations of quantum optimization algorithms, with their Aquila quantum computer accessible through Amazon Braket representing one of the most powerful quantum simulators available commercially. Joint research with Deloitte has demonstrated quantum reservoir computing on QuEra’s hardware outperforming classical models on drug-discovery datasets. Founded by leading quantum physicists including Mikhail Lukin and Markus Greiner, QuEra operates the world’s largest publicly accessible quantum computer and targets near-term quantum advantage in optimization problems and scientific simulation applications.
