Kudos to our team in Timișoara for opening to the public its masterclass “Quantum Applications in the Real World”!
In Timișoara we plan for the future. The future is bright if you prepare for it. Together with local stakeholders — Universitatea Politehnica din Timişoara , Equal1, Eviden, Nokia Bell Labs— we’re opening the masterclass to public sessions in order to bring the local audience into the real quantum world and connect our community with practitioners who build it. First Speaker: Laurentiu Nita (Quarks Interactive) — learning quantum through games. Friday, Nov 21, 2025 | 11:30–13:30 (EET) Save your seat: https://luma.com/6kt84697 Venue: Library of the Universitatea Politehnica din Timişoara, Amphitheatre K2 This mini-series is part of the “Quantum Applications in the Real World” module within the Quantum Computing Master’s at Universitatea Politehnica Timișoara — program coordinated by Prof. Mihai Udrescu, module led by me. See you in Timișoara! #QuantumComputing #QuantumEducation #UPT #Timisoara #Community #HPC #QKD #QCaaS #STEM

Join Equal1 CEO Jason Lynch at the Mastercard Dublin Tech Hub for Discovering Quantum to learn more about how Equal1 is redefining quantum computing by uniting quantum and classical processing on a single silicon chip — making scalable quantum technology more accessible and practical for real-world applications.
If anyone would be interested, next week on Wednesday is a meetup happening about quantum computers. I find it exciting how the compute powerhouses are evolving. It will be hosted by Mastercard and D-Wave. Leaders from these companies will be speaking up. From D-wave Axel Daian, from Mastercard Bruno Chagas and from Equal1 Jason Lynch. Looking forward!!!

We are thrilled to announce that Equal1 has been selected by the European Space Agency - ESA to install a cutting-edge Hybrid Quantum Computing (HQC) System for Earth Observation (EO). This landmark partnership will see the deployment of our advanced Bell-1 Quantum Computer at ESA under the Quantum Computing for Earth Observation (QC4EO) initiative. What this means: 🔹 Accelerated Data Processing: Our Bell-1 system leverages the unique capabilities of quantum computing, utilising the potential of quantum algorithms to accelerate the processing of increasingly complex Earth Observation workloads. 🔹 Real-World Applications: ESA scientists will use the system to explore quantum algorithms for applications like Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) raw data processing and mission planning for satellite constellations. 🔹 Scalable Innovation: The Bell-1 is a compact, rack-mounted, easily deployable quantum server, offering a scalable, efficient, and low-power solution that seamlessly integrates into ESA's existing HPC environment. Says Simonetta Cheli, Director of ESA’s Earth Observation Programmes and Head of ESRIN: “This is an exciting and significant moment for us at ESA’s Earth Observation Programmes, marking a major advancement in our mission to monitor our planet.” We are proud to contribute to a more sustainable and resilient future by driving innovation in the European space sector!

Exciting times for Ireland’s semiconductor and quantum ecosystem! Equal1 is proud to stand alongside industry leaders driving the Silicon Island Strategy and shaping Europe’s next wave of innovation. #SiliconIsland #QuantumInnovation #Semiconductors
Is this the moment for Ireland’s semiconductor sector? As Europe drives forward under the EU Chips Act, Ireland is positioning itself at the heart of this transformation, building on decades of excellence in semiconductor research, design and advanced manufacturing. With the launch of the Government’s Silicon Island Strategy, the vision is clear: to position Ireland as a world leader in the semiconductor space. Semiconductors are the heartbeat of modern technology, powering everything from AI and communications to healthcare and the environment. Ireland starts from a position of real strength, home to Europe’s most advanced semiconductor fab and more than 22,000 people working in the sector. Industry leaders Jason Lynch (Equal1), Cian Ó Mathúna (Tyndall National Institute), Leonard Hobbs (Intel Corporation) and Paul Murray (Atlantic Bridge) see an enormous opportunity, not only to grow Ireland’s ecosystem, but to create the conditions for the next generation of semiconductor startups and unicorns to emerge. Ireland is ready to play its part in Europe’s semiconductor future. I-C3 is ready, are you? #Semiconductors #ChipsAct #SiliconIsland #Innovation #DeepTech #Startups #IC3
