IQM Spark Ignites Quantum era for Students and Researchers

Installation of a full-stack quantum computer was a turning point in national technology growth. With the 5-qubit quantum computer “IQM Spark,” the institution may lead computer science research

IQM Quantum Computers, dubbed “a global leader in superconducting quantum computers,” will produce Poland’s first quantum computer utilizing low-temperature superconducting qubit technology

In the second quarter of 2025, the 5-qubit “IQM Spark” system is expected to be up and running at WUST

The IQM Spark supports “computer science research and education.” With it, researchers, PhD candidates, and computer science students will have “direct access to the actual quantum computer for practical programming in quantum computing”

The deployment supports IQM's objective to “build a sustainable quantum ecosystem in Central and Eastern Europe.” This strategy involves local partnerships with key players

It offers a concrete resource for study and instruction in a quickly evolving sector, possibly making Poland a major player in Central and Eastern Europe’s quantum technology market

By facilitating the investigation of quantum algorithms and their uses, this technology’s accessibility may encourage creativity across a range of industries

By committing to the development of a more extensive quantum ecosystem in the area, IQM’s larger approach may pave the way for future partnerships and developments
