Invest in OQC’s quantum accelerated future
ADVANCING COMPUTE WITH OUR PATENTED TECHNOLOGY
The Path to Quantum Advantage
Quantum computing is one of the most transformational technologies of this century and, as demonstrated by the speed, accuracy and scalability of our roadmap, OQC is best positioned to lead the market.
At OQC, our mission is simple: to build the quantum-accelerated world
To do this, we build Application Optimised Compute; quantum computers specifically engineered for the commercial advantage era where first quantum applications deliver business value to customers. We will achieve this through four generations of future systems:
OQC GENESIS will be the start of the logical era. Able to run hundreds of quantum operations, it will become the first quantum computer ever installed in New York City, bringing seamless and secure access to quantum computing directly to Wall Street.
OQC TITAN will be the first quantum system built for commercial advantage. Able to run millions of quantum operations, it will outperform classical compute on finance and security & defence applications.
OQC ATHENA will offer transformational advantage. Capable of a billion quantum operations, it will also unlock value for the life sciences sector, through quantum chemistry and simulation,
OQC ATLAS will be a generational advancement. Able to run trillions of quantum operations, it will cement value in quantum chemistry and be capable of breaking RSA.
OQC’s leadership team consists of the best technical and business minds in the UK, alongside world-renowned researchers and investors, intentionally selected to spearhead our ambitious growth.
