London, UK, 28 October 2025  — Oxford Quantum Circuits (OQC), a global leader in quantum computing, is working with NVIDIA on NVQLink, a groundbreaking open system architecture that provides real-time, low-latency connectivity between quantum and AI supercomputing systems.

This initiative builds on OQC’s earlier announcement of its collaboration with NVIDIA on  the industry’s first quantum-AI data centre in New York City with Digital Realty – a landmark step towards scalable, hybrid quantum-classical computing in the heart of financial and national infrastructure.

OQC’s vision for the future of hybrid compute is one where quantum processors and classical supercomputers work seamlessly together to unlock new levels of performance and scalability. NVQLink represents a major step towards this future, offering the open, interoperable foundation needed to connect the world’s most advanced computing technologies.

“NVIDIA NVQLink is a milestone for the industry, providing the platform that will help accelerate the transition towards truly hybrid computing,” said Simon Phillips, Chief Technology Officer at OQC. “At OQC, we believe the future of computing will be built on collaboration between the world’s most advanced quantum and classical systems – and NVQLink helps make that vision possible.”

Bridging Quantum and AI Supercomputing
At the heart of NVQLink lies a real-time, low-latency and high-throughput connection layer, optimised for hybrid quantum-classical orchestration. Built on NVIDIA CUDA-Q, NVQLink allows developers and hardware partners to interlace compute resources (GPUs, CPUs and QPUs) with sub-4 microsecond data-transfer latencies, scaling to hundreds of 400G channels in switch.

Last year, OQC  integrated the NVIDIA CUDA Quantum platform to work with its quantum computers alongside an NVIDIA GH200 Grace Hopper Superchip  to conduct hybrid quantum-classical experiments.

Now, NVQLink provides a real-time, high-bandwidth framework for orchestrating CPUs, GPUs and QPUs within a unified computing environment, enabling developers and researchers to advance the hybrid applications needed for scalable, fault-tolerant quantum computing. By fostering collaboration across the ecosystem, NVQLink supports a shared goal: to make quantum computing a practical, integrated part of global compute infrastructure.

“NVIDIA NVQLink unites quantum processors and control systems with NVIDIA AI supercomputing, delivering a turnkey solution for integrating and scaling quantum hardware,” said Tim Costa, General Manager for Quantum at NVIDIA. ”OQC’s integration of the open NVQLink platform supports the transition to hybrid computing, integrating quantum and AI supercomputing to advance the development of this new computing infrastructure.”

Open Collaboration to Support Quantum Development
OQC is working with NVIDIA to enable quantum and AI to work harmoniously in support of unparalleled compute capability. NVQLink supports the creation of  a unified platform for OQC to continue progressing logical era devices, run hybrid workloads and scale towards practical quantum advantage.

First Quantum-AI Data Centre in New York

The Quantum-AI Data Centre brings together OQC’s quantum computing, NVIDIA accelerated AI hardware, and Digital Realty’s cutting-edge global infrastructure, eliminating geographical and infrastructure barriers to empower businesses to harness the power of quantum compute and AI. This initiative allows enterprises to access an integrated environment where quantum computing powers the AI revolution: enabling faster model training, more efficient data generation, and transformative applications in finance and security.

The system features OQC GENESIS, a logical-era quantum computer, installed within Digital Realty’s secure JFK10 site – the first-ever quantum computer installed within a New York City data centre. Integrated with NVIDIA Grace Hopper Superchips, the platform provides a launchpad for hybrid workloads and enterprise adoption at scale. OQC expects that future GENESIS systems will ship with NVIDIA accelerated computing as standard, building on its earlier collaboration integrating the NVIDIA CUDA-Q platform and providing developers seamless tools to build hybrid quantum-AI applications.
