LUMI AI Factory Selects IQM’s Halocene Roadmap for Europe’s First Superconducting Logical Qubit System

IQM Quantum Computers will deploy LUMI-IQ, a superconducting quantum computer designed to support logical qubits, at CSC's Kajaani, Finland data center. The EuroHPC Joint Undertaking is co-funding the system, which will be integrated into the LUMI AI Factory as a hybrid HPC-AI-quantum platform. Delivery is planned in three phases through 2029, beginning with 150 physical qubits.

OutlookPlausible

European researchers could begin co-scheduling quantum and classical HPC jobs within the existing LUMI environment in the next two years, testing hybrid algorithms before the full logical-qubit system is complete.

EuroHPC Joint Undertaking Selects 13 European QPU Startups for Quantum Grand Challenge

EuroHPC Joint Undertaking approved Decision No. 31/2026, selecting 13 European quantum computing startups for its Quantum Grand Challenge call. The selected companies will receive Phase 1 Coordination and Support Action funding as a preliminary milestone. The funding is intended to support establishment of technical proof-of-concepts.

OutlookPlausible

This could enable European supercomputing centres to benchmark proof-of-concept QPUs from the selected startups against common EuroHPC integration requirements within two years, narrowing the field for follow-on host procurements.
