Partnership
Rigetti x DARPA Quantum Benchmarking Initiative
Rigetti selected to participate in DARPA's Quantum Benchmarking Initiative (QBI) Stage A, a 6-month program worth up to million to verify and validate utility-scale quantum computing concepts by 2033. Rigetti's concept combines its multi-chip architecture with qLDPC quantum error correction codes, collaborating with Riverlane on QEC technology.
