The convergence of Quantum with AI

Eldorado Research Institute

Eldorado Research Institute (Instituto de Pesquisas Eldorado) is a Brazilian non-profit private research and development institute based in Campinas, São Paulo, that carries out applied R&D for industry and government in areas including embedded systems, semiconductors, telecommunications, artificial intelligence and IoT. Its quantum computing activity is oriented toward algorithms, software and application development rather than building its own quantum processors, and is conducted largely through collaborations with universities and hardware vendors. Within Brazil's small quantum ecosystem it functions as an applied-research and industry-bridge organisation rather than a hardware developer.

IQM to Deliver Its 1st Quantum Computer in South America to Brazil’s Eldorado Research Institute

IQM Quantum Computers has signed a purchase agreement with Brazil's Eldorado Research Institute to install an IQM Spark superconducting quantum computer in Campinas. The deal marks IQM's first quantum computer deployment in South America and its entry into the region.

OutlookPlausible

The on-premises IQM Spark could become a local hands-on testbed for superconducting quantum education and small-scale algorithm prototyping in Brazil, reducing dependence on remote cloud access to overseas machines.

IQM Expands to South America with On-Premises QPU Sale to Brazil’s Eldorado Research Institute

IQM has agreed to supply an on-premises IQM Spark quantum computer to Brazil's Eldorado Research Institute, with installation planned for the first quarter of 2027. The deal is described as the first purchase of a quantum computer by a private research institution in Brazil and includes cloud access to IQM's European 54-qubit system.

OutlookPlausible

This could seed a self-sustaining Brazilian quantum research ecosystem by giving universities and private labs recurring local access to superconducting hardware without depending solely on remote cloud queues.

IQM sends its first quantum computer to Brazil’s Eldorado Institute

IQM Quantum Computers will deploy an IQM Spark quantum computer at the Eldorado Research Institute’s Campinas headquarters in 2027. The installation is expected to be Brazil’s first quantum computer from IQM. The system will be hosted on-site at the institute.

OutlookPlausible

An on-premises IQM Spark in Campinas could let Eldorado and nearby universities move beyond cloud-only access to direct pulse-level control and calibration experiments on a superconducting device.
