Institute for Quantum Computing

BRINGING TOGETHER WORLD-LEADING RESEARCHERS, STUDENTS, AND PARTNERS TO ADVANCE QUANTUM RESEARCH & TECHNOLOGY

Mission

To develop and advance quantum information science and technology at the highest international level through the collaboration of physicists, mathematicians, computer scientists, engineers and chemists.

Value Proposition

IQC stands among the top quantum information research institutes in the world. Experts in all fields of quantum information science and technology come to IQC to conduct research, share knowledge and encourage and support the next generation of scientists, mathematicians, and engineers. IQC is leading the next great Canadian technological revolution. Quantum discoveries and applications developed in IQC labs are creating the foundation for next generation technologies, based on quantum information research conducted right here in Canada.

WHY Institute for Quantum Computing STANDS OUT

01

IQC faculty have contributed to over 3,200 peer-reviewed publications and received more than 145,000 citations on QIS topics throughout their careers. IQC members continue to publish well over 150 peer-reviewed articles annually.

02

41 former students and 43 former postdocs trained at IQC are now faculty members at institutions worldwide, including all major Canadian Quantum Institutes. These include 2 CRC chairs, research institute directors, and research centre leaders. IQC continues to train approximately 250 people annually.

03

With nearly 30% of its 25 startups securing funding, outperforming typical venture success rates, and consistently launching new ventures each year, IQC accelerates the transition of quantum research into real-world impact by supporting commercialization, building product development infrastructure, and advising industry and government partners.
