Insider Brief Alice & Bob is contributing quantum error correction expertise to QuBriC, a European doctoral network focused on training researchers in quantum error correction. QuBriC brings together 16 universities and seven quantum companies to recruit and train 15 doctoral researchers through a €4.6 million Horizon Europe MSCA programme. The network aims to address quantum … Read more
Insider Brief Aquark Technologies and partners demonstrated that quantum-based atomic clocks can synchronize networked military radars and maintain an accurate operational picture without relying on GNSS timing. The June 2026 Royal Navy trial used two AQlock 2.0 cold-atom clocks with separate radar systems to simulate GNSS-denied and spoofed conditions. The trial showed the radar network … Read more
Insider Brief Zapata Quantum and QuEra have partnered to support quantum application development and help enterprises prepare use cases for future quantum systems. The collaboration combines QuEra’s neutral-atom quantum computing platform with Zapata’s hardware-agnostic quantum algorithm and application development expertise. The partnership is part of QuEra’s Quantum Alliance program and focuses on helping organizations design … Read more
Insider Brief Srirama Engineering College has partnered with BLOQ Quantum to launch a quantum computing initiative focused on education, research, and skill development. The collaboration provides students and faculty access to BLOQ Quantum’s computing platform for learning quantum algorithms, programming, and research applications. The partnership will support joint research, technical training, publications, and industry-academia collaboration … Read more
Across 170 enterprises, AI infrastructure has moved decisively into production — two-thirds now run AI workloads live and three in 10 run them at scale — while the ability to account for what that infrastructure costs has not kept pace. Enterprises have quietly demoted cost in the buying decision: performance and GPU availability now outrank … Read more
Across 116 enterprises, agents are in production and so are the incidents: A majority have already had a confirmed agent security event or a near-miss. Two-thirds of enterprises enforce scoped permissions at runtime. Barely one in five isolates its highest-risk agents, making containment the weakest layer in the stack precisely as autonomy scales. Credential sharing … Read more
Across 108 enterprises, trust in automated agent evaluation rose sharply in July — and the failure rate it is supposed to predict did not move at all. The share of organizations that fully trust automated evaluation nearly tripled, from 5% in June to 13%, and the complaint that evaluations don’t match real-world outcomes fell 10 … Read more
Across 101 enterprises, the context feeding AI agents is failing often and repeatedly. Sixty-eight percent have traced a confident but wrong agent answer to missing or inconsistent business context in the past six months, and the single most common answer is not “once” but “more than once.” The counterintuitive part is which companies report it. … Read more
Across 107 enterprises, agentic orchestration is not a choice of a single platform.The typical enterprise runs three orchestration platforms at once, and selects them for flexibility across models rather than affinity to any single one. Microsoft leads primary usage while Anthropic leads forward consideration by a wide margin. The AI control plane enterprises expect is deliberately … Read more
Insider Brief Quantinuum and Oracle announced a multi-year partnership to make Quantinuum’s Helios trapped-ion quantum computer directly accessible through Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. The companies plan to explore hybrid quantum-AI and high-performance computing applications across areas including materials, pharmaceuticals, logistics, energy and financial modeling. Oracle plans to preview an OCI quantum service in the coming months, … Read more
