YORK(BUSINESS WIRE)Accenture (NYSE: ACN) and IonQ are collaborating to accelerate quantum computing business experimentation in organizations globally and across industries. Accentures experience and skills in quantum,
coupled with its ability to design and create customized industry solutions tailored to IonQs quantum computing technology, will help more companies innovate and become quantum ready.
The exploration of quantum in business is growing rapidly, driven by the anticipated business value and competitive advantage it promises to deliver. Quantum
computings vast potential is persistent across every industry and realized by solving challenges that were previously unsolvable. Together, Accenture and IonQ will help clients explore and experiment with quantum solutions designed to address
mission-critical business problems.
Quantum computing will create unprecedented opportunities, and we want Accenture clients to be ready to seize
them, said Marc Carrel-Billiard, senior managing director and Technology Innovation lead at Accenture. Whether in life sciences, energy distribution and storage, or logistics, quantum computing offers new and compelling ways to solve key
business problems and generate new insights. IonQs systems can play a critical role in support of a companys quantum journey, and we want to help our clients experiment with quantum and understand how it could potentially impact their
business, as well as their broader industry.
IonQs 11-qubit system is the only quantum computer
available via the cloud on AWS Amazon Braket, Google Cloud and Microsoft Azure, and its 32-qubit system is one of the worlds most powerful quantum computers. The
company plans to develop modular quantum computers small enough to be networked together in 2023, which could help pave the way for broad quantum advantage by 2025. In September 2020, the company two co-founders, Jungsang Kim and Chris Monroe, were named to the White Houses National Quantum Initiative Advisory Committee (NQIAC).
