QCI Set to Win as Only Public Pure-Play in Quantum Computing

LEESBURG, Va., July 01, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Quantum Computing Inc. (OTCQB: QUBT) (QCI), a technology leader in quantum-ready applications and tools, has entered the commercialization phase as the only public pure-play in the quantum computing space.

After hitting several major milestones, QCI has begun the official commercial launch of its Mukai quantum computing software execution platform. Last week, the company introduced a new trial access program that demonstrates the unique power of Mukai to solve real-world problems.

The trial enables developers and organizations to discover first-hand how they can migrate their existing applications to quantum-ready solutions today and realize superior performance even when running their solutions on classical (Intel or AMD processor-based) computers. The trial is designed to encourage and facilitate quantum application development to solve real world problems at breakthrough speed—and not tomorrow, but today.

Building the Team
Key to the company’s strategy has been the formation of an exceptionally talented technical team who represent the best-of-the-best. Midway through last year, QCI welcomed Michael Booth as its new chief technology officer and Steve Reinhardt as vice president of product development. They are both highly skilled and accomplished technology executives previously driving innovation at D-Wave Systems, the world’s first commercial supplier of quantum computers.

“There are only a handful of quantum software experts in the world, and fortunately for us, this includes Mike and Steve," commented QCI CEO, Robert Liscouski. “They have been doing an outstanding job building out our software engineering teams, developing our first quantum-ready products, and preparing QCI for commercial success.”

To support their efforts, over the last year QCI has also expanded its technical advisory board with the addition of five noted IT experts and industry thought leaders. They have been helping to advance the company’s go-to-market strategy and position QCI as a key partner to system integrators, as enterprises worldwide begin to evaluate how quantum-ready solutions can enhance their business applications. 

As part of its new commercialization phase, QCI has begun the search for sales and marketing executive leadership as well as sales professionals with domain expertise, and particularly for those with established relationships with potential customers that can accelerate QCI’s path to revenue this year.
