Distributed quantum computing is closer than you think! IBM and Cisco are joining forces to connect large-scale, fault-tolerant quantum computers — paving the way for a quantum computing internet. By combining IBM’s leadership in building useful quantum computers with Cisco’s quantum networking innovations, the companies will work to solve fundamental challenges towards a quantum computing internet. This could power new possibilities across industries through quantum computing, sensing, and communication enabling us to solve problems in a completely new computational space.

A great partnership for the new digital era.
The Quantum Network Moment Cisco and IBM are signalling a new phase for quantum progress where scale is no longer a vertical climb but a connected ecosystem. Their vision of networked quantum systems shows how the next breakthroughs will emerge from architecture, not just hardware. By unifying processors, networking, and software into a distributed quantum fabric, they are accelerating the road to fault tolerant, real world computation. This is how the quantum future will arrive faster, through collaboration that turns bold science into systems that can transform industries.
