The Chicago Quantum Exchange welcomed the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay (IIT Bombay) as its fifth international partner, an agreement highlighted last week during a meeting between President Joe Biden and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi at the G20 summit in New Delhi, India. It was announced alongside a science and technology partnership between IIT Bombay and the University of Chicago that will promote cooperation in fields such as quantum information science, climate and energy, advanced microelectronics, artificial intelligence and data science.
The partnership agreement with IIT Bombay marked the latest expansion for the CQE, an intellectual hub focused on accelerating the progress of quantum information science and engineering (QISE). In recent months, the CQE has welcomed three new corporate partners that are contributing to the growing strength of the regional quantum ecosystem: Quantopticon, Great Lakes Crystal Technologies, and memQ, all graduates of the quantum startup accelerator Duality.
