Strategic partners

Quantum computing all over the world

We are committed to fostering a truly global quantum economy. Our iconic IBM Quantum System One is already in strategic partner locations in Germany and Japan, with more on the way in the United States, South Korea, and Quebec, Canada. With our strategic partners, we aim to build national quantum ecosystems, develop workforces, and accelerate R&D on a national and global scale.

Strategic partnerships:

  • Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft, Germany
  • University of Tokyo, Japan
  • Cleveland Clinic, United States (in progress)
  • Yonsei University, Korea (in progress)
  • Quebec, Canada (in progress)
