This initiative is intended to support IonQ\u2019s global expansion roadmap across the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region and to strengthen Australia\u2019s quantum capabilities.<\/p>\n<p>The collaboration will expand on existing advancements in ion trap technology. It specifically focuses on the co-development of next-generation electronics and materials, including the design and simulation of application-specific integrated circuits for qubit control. The teams will also work to reduce hardware complexity while scaling system capacity, and explore new materials and deposition techniques to enhance ion trap performance. Emergence Quantum was established by former members of Microsoft\u2019s quantum team, contributing expertise in systems engineering, quantum control, and hardware integration.<\/p>\n<p>This initiative is positioned to contribute to Australia\u2019s quantum industry by engaging local experts and institutions in advancing scalable, high-performance quantum computing and networking. <a href=\"http:\/\/linkedin.com\/in\/david-reilly-70ab7514\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Prof. David Reilly<\/a>, CEO and co-founder of Emergence Quantum, commented that the collaboration aims to accelerate Australia\u2019s quantum development and growth by integrating international investment with local expertise. The partnership builds on IonQ\u2019s ongoing work in the region, including its collaboration with the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.anu.edu.au\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Australian National University<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Read the full announcement <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/investors.ionq.com\/news\/news-details\/2025\/IonQ-Expands-Across-APAC-Through-Strategic-Collaboration-With-Australian-Company-Emergence-Quantum\/default.aspx\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size\">July 24, 2025<\/p>\n<p>                    <a href=\"#\" rel=\"nofollow\" onclick=\"window.print(); return false;\" title=\"Printer Friendly, PDF &amp; Email\"><br \/>\n                    <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"pf-button-img\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/printfriendly-pdf-button.png\" alt=\"Print Friendly, PDF &amp; Email\" style=\"width: 112px;height: 24px;\"\/><br \/>\n                    <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"IonQ (NYSE: IONQ), a quantum computing and networking company, has announced a strategic collaboration with Emergence Quantum, an&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":23398,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[21],"tags":[64,63,257,105],"class_list":{"0":"post-23397","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-computing","8":"tag-au","9":"tag-australia","10":"tag-computing","11":"tag-technology"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23397","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=23397"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23397\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/23398"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=23397"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=23397"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=23397"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
