IQM Quantum Computers has deployed its 20-qubit Radiance quantum computer, named Pathfinder, at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL). This marks IQM's first installation of a commercial quantum system in the United States. The on-premises deployment allows ORNL researchers to develop hybrid workflows connecting the new quantum hardware with existing high-performance computing systems for advanced research.
Key points
- IQM deployed Pathfinder, a 20-qubit quantum computer, at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL).
- The on-premises deployment model allows ORNL to maintain absolute governance over the hardware and generated intellectual property.
- Researchers will use the system to develop hybrid workflows for advanced materials simulations, molecular chemistry, and AI.
- This milestone strengthens America's quantum science leadership and is part of IQM's growing U.S. commercial footprint.
- The deployment occurred ahead of IQM's planned Nasdaq listing through a business combination expected in mid-2026.
