Our take
We are bumping up against the ceiling of Moore’s law. As classical computing chips reach physical limits, the exponential increases in computational power that we have been enjoying for decades will soon be a thing of the past. Quantum computing could be the answer.
Phasecraft is developing algorithms and software that push today’s quantum hardware beyond experimental demonstrations and towards useful applications. Its work could accelerate the application of quantum computers by years, if not decades.
The startup is now focused on pushing its technology as far as possible through collaboration with the leading quantum researchers around the world. Moreover, gaining buy-in through key stakeholders in the field could be crucial to Phasecraft’s success.
