Israel-based Classiq and Japan-based Toshiba Digital Solutions have announced that they will collaborate on gate-based quantum computing, and promote use case exploration and platform software development in industrial fields. Quantum computers can potentially solve problems that traditional computers cant yet tackle based on the principles of quantum mechanics. These can be sorted into two types - the Ising machine type and the gate-based universal computer - and while the former is specialized in solving combinatorial optimization problems, the latter is still in development but intended for general-purpose applications such as AI, optimization, and simulation.

Were excited to collaborate with Toshiba Digital Solutions, a global technology leader, said Nir Minerbi, Classiq CEO. Classiqs state-of-the-art quantum software platform combined with Toshiba Digital Solutions deep AI, IT knowledge, and advanced technological expertise will be leveraged to explore and architect sophisticated quantum algorithms enabling an industrial Quantum Transformation (QX).

Classiq offers a user-friendly gate-based quantum computing software platform that helps designers generate, analyze, and execute quantum circuits. The collaboration states that Toshiba Digital Solutions will conduct technical evaluations of quantum AI by using the Classiq platform. Based on the results, Toshiba Digital Solutions will explore various use cases that gate-based quantum computing can solve in energy, social infrastructure, smart manufacturing, carbon neutrality, and circular economy.

Toshiba Digital Solutions and Classiq will also work together to create new value by leveraging gate-based quantum computing for industrial customers across their respective businesses.

"We are excited to have the opportunity of technology collaboration with Classiq, added Shunsuke Okada, President and CEO of Toshiba Digital Solutions Corporation. We will create new value through QX (Quantum Transformation) together by combining Classiqs platform and Toshiba Groups quantum technology, AI, and IT knowledge cultivated over many years.
