Fujitsu and New Mexico to Establish Quantum Computing Research Center
Fujitsu announced a collaboration with New Mexico to establish a quantum computing research center in the state. The center will pursue research across quantum computing hardware, software, algorithms, and theory. It will also support education and workforce-development programs aimed at expanding the quantum talent pipeline.

This could give Fujitsu a US-based superconducting quantum research and talent hub, enabling earlier hardware demonstrations and a trained regional workforce within two years.
Fujitsu already develops superconducting quantum hardware with RIKEN, and New Mexico has national laboratories and universities that can supply expertise and graduates. If the center becomes operational as announced, it can run joint hardware/software projects and training programs near-term.
