Conferencia: 'Entanglement Networks for Datacentre-Scale Quantum Computing '

Impartida por Carmen Palacio Berraquero, fundadora y directora de Nu Quantum.

Abstract

This talk will look ahead to what we require to reach full commercial advantage, and show that there is a key piece missing: modularity. The scaling path we envisage will entail building multi-core quantum computing clusters at the datacenter scale, and eventually connecting tens or hundreds of modules together to enable multi-million-qubit machines. Also, the talk will describe our distributed quantum computing architecture underpinned by photonic interconnects. It will outline the technical challenges that need to be overcome to progress the technology, and how Nu Quantum is working to build the pieces needed to scale out towards useful quantum computation.

Speaker

Carmen Palacios-Berraquero is the founder and CEO of Nu Quantum, the leading distributed quantum computing company, building the networking infrastructure to enable quantum computers to scale. Since launching in 2018, Nu Quantum has grown to over 70 highly skilled, interdisciplinary staff and expanded internationally with teams in Spain and the US. In December 2025, Nu Quantum also announced a record-breaking $60 million Series A fundraise, the largest for a quantum networking company ever. An award-winning physicist and inventor, Carmen holds a PhD in physics from the University of Cambridge and an undergraduate degree from Imperial College London. She is also a Cofounder and Director of UKQuantum, the UK’s quantum industry group. She has been the leader of several pro-equality and LGBTQIA+ visibility groups, and initiatives in STEM.
