Quantum Computing

The QLab promotes the transfer of quantum computing know-how to companies and the public. Whether entry or expert level: immerse yourself in the fascinating world of quantum!  

As part of the "Competence Center Quantum Computing Baden-Württemberg" (KQCBW), the first IBM quantum computer on German ground was set up in Ehningen near Stuttgart. Together with Fraunhofer IAF, Fraunhofer IAO takes over its coordination as well as the contact to local companies.

The main goal of the collaborative research project SEQUOIA End-to-End is to make today's bottlenecks in the entire quantum software development process transparent and to research and provide performant, automated and controllable end-to-end solutions for industrial use cases through holistic quantum software engineering. The activities build on the results of the completed SEQUOIA project.

The AutoQML project aims to both solve the challenges of current AutoML approaches and to adapt the successful approach of AutoML. Future users should thus have easier access to QML methods.

The office of the Quantum^BW innovation initiative serves as a central point of contact for the networks in the academic and applied quantum technology sector in order to bundle and strengthen them and make them more visible internationally. The Fraunhofer IAO manages the office together with the Fraunhofer IAF and the Center for Integrated Quantum Science and Technology IQST at the University of Stuttgart and the University of Ulm.
