Who’s involved
Atom Computing builds highly scalable, gate-based quantum computers using arrays of optically-trapped neutral atoms. The company became the first to surpass 1,000 qubits in a universal gate-based system with its AC1000 platform and has demonstrated quantum error correction using neutral-atom technology. In partnership with [Microsoft](https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/quantum/), Atom Computing is deploying the world's first commercial quantum computer with logical qubits for on-premises installation.
