This year, for Quandela’s summer team outing, we spent a lovely day entangled in games and aligned in purpose.    Surrounded by nature, we rediscovered a fundamental truth: the greatest breakthroughs emerge when talents align and create something greater than the sum of their parts.   🎾 Between badminton matches, quantum discussions, and creative explorations, we nurtured that collective dynamic that drives our daily work.   At Quandela, we know that powering breakthrough starts with the value we create today, together as united and inspired teams. 🙌 Thank you to the entire Quandela team for making this day so memorable. #Quantum

“Is there a way that quantum computing will allow us to see patterns in the data that we didn't know existed before? It's like Lego bricks, we have the bricks of machine learning, we have the bricks of quantum computing. We're trying to merge them to build a better framework.” 🎙️This week, Quandela’s brilliant Machine Learning Engineer, Cassandre Notton, kicked off the very first episode of The Quantum Revolution, a new tech series that cuts through jargon to spotlight the people and ideas shaping the future of quantum. Classical machine learning models are powerful but what if we could make them more efficient, train with less data, or reduce energy costs? Enter Quantum Machine Learning (QML) 🔍In this episode on Quantum Machine Learning (QML), Cassandre explains how quantum computing can unlock new capabilities in ML and what that means for the future of AI and computing. We’re proud to see our team shaping the next chapter of quantum innovation.

[French version below] The fusion of two of the most powerful technologies of our time is happening now:  Quandela is teaming up with Mila - Quebec Artificial Intelligence Institute, Quebec’s world-renowned AI institute, to explore the exciting intersection of photonic quantum computing and machine learning.  Together, we’re pushing the frontier by: ⚡Pioneering quantum machine learning models that could revolutionize industries  ⚖️ Benchmarking quantum approaches to demonstrate real-world advantages over classical approaches  🛠️ Solving critical quantum training challenges to accelerate adoption  🔬 Demonstrating breakthrough quantum algorithms on actual photonic processors    The partnership also marks an important step in Quandela’s growing presence in Canada, reinforcing our commitment to advancing the local quantum ecosystem.
