PsiQuantum plans to launch a utility-scale quantum computer with over 1 million qubits in Chicago by 2028, positioning it ahead of competitors. The system will be a central feature of Illinois' new quantum park and is expected to have applications in drug discovery, battery technology, and fertilizer production. BlackRock is among the backers of this $1 billion-plus project. Meanwhile, Amazon has introduced a new 54-qubit quantum processor named 'Emerald,' developed by IQM, available through its Amazon Braket service. In China, Origin Quantum's 本源悟空 quantum computer has entered commercial operations with three versions deployed across supercomputing centers, higher education institutions, and government departments. Additionally, several quantum technology companies, including Quantum Optimization, D-Wave, Rigetti, IonQ, Arqit, and others, are gaining attention for their advancements and market movements, with some stocks showing notable premarket gains and call option activity.
