FABrIC is introducing Canada’s first Quantum Computing Sandbox (QCS). QCS aims to accelerate the adoption of quantum computing technology in Canada by providing technical expertise and enabling access to state-of-the-art quantum computing platforms for academics, startups, and small & medium enterprises (SMEs). FABrIC’s Quantum Computing Sandbox are calls to stimulate the development of industrially relevant applications of quantum computing in Canada, strengthen Canadian quantum computing R&D in areas of strategic importance, and drive the adoption of quantum computing solutions by end-sector users. The QCS will financially support direct access to quantum computing cloud services offered by global quantum computing providers and provide technical expertise from CMC Microsystems’ dedicated team of quantum application scientists.

CMC Challenge engineering support: minimum 8 hours/week. All IP generated by participants during the Sandbox will remain the property of the participants.  CMC Microsystems does not claim any rights to this IP.

Quantum computer access: determined per project by applicant and CMC. CMC will work with you to shape your project application.
