This could enable TuringQ to scale its photonic quantum processor to hundreds of qubits, broadening commercial access to photonic quantum computing within two years.
Photonic qubit scaling is primarily gated by fabrication yield and optical loss. IPO capital would allow TuringQ to invest in advanced manufacturing and system integration, potentially achieving a 100+ qubit processor on an integrated photonic chip. Such a system would compete with superconducting and trapped-ion platforms for early enterprise applications.
