 Quantum AI Global and Q-CTRL enter into strategic partnership to Advance Quantum Technology in India

 

Hyderabad, 12th August 2024: Quantum AI Global (QAIG) India’s leading organization in quantum communication & technology, and Q-CTRL the global leader in quantum infrastructure software have announced a strategic partnership to work on various technology initiatives in India- one of the fastest growing technology markets in the world.

Earlier this month, Q-CTRL announced a pioneering quantum workforce development initiative in India, making Tamil Nadu the first in the world to mandate Quantum Computing education in technical universities. This was achieved by integrating Q-CTRL’s cutting-edge Black Opal software into the Tamil Nadu Skill Development Corporation’s (TNSDC) Naan Mudhalvan Upskilling Platform. In the first stage of their new partnership with Q-CTRL, QAIG will utilize its vast knowledge in quantum technology and education to act as the support and expansion partner for Q-CTRL’s Black Opal platform at TNSDC and across India.

The global quantum workforce is drastically understaffed, as evidenced in a McKinsey report predicting that less than half of projected quantum computing jobs will be filled by 2025. To close the quantum skills gap, talent will need to be tapped from around the globe, and India will be a key contributor to building the quantum economy. This strategic collaboration aims to provide high-quality, hands-on quantum computing education to hundreds of thousands of university engineering students and recognizes Tamil Nadu as a leader in the burgeoning quantum technology industry.

 

Naan Mudhalvan makes essential job skills available at no cost to millions of engineering students across the state, and TNSDC has mandated Quantum Computing education to technical universities, establishing Tamil Nadu as a global pioneer in ensuring broad access to quantum education. This move addresses India’s future workforce needs and lays the foundation for India’s future in Quantum, a critical national priority.

The new strategic collaboration between Quantum AI Global and Q-CTRL sets the stage for a significant advancement in the democratization of quantum education and directly supports India’s National Quantum Mission. 

 

Mr. Sanjay Chittore, CEO & Founder of Quantum AI Global said, “We are extremely excited to partner with Q-CTRL for the development of Quantum skills and technical infrastructure in the country. The implementation of a first-of-its-kind foundational program in the country aims to introduce students to quantum computing technology. This effort is a critical milestone in QAIG's mission to cultivate and advance a quantum-aware work force in the country.  With this alliance we will be shaping the future and ensuring that India remains at the forefront of this technological revolution.”

 

According to Mr. Aravind Ratnam, Chief Strategy Officer, Q-CTRL, “Quantum AI Global are the perfect partners for this initiative and we are confident that together we will propel the growth of Quantum Technology in India. Quantum AI Global have recognized expertise in quantum technologies and a proven track record in delivering quantum skill training. We are honored to serve TNSDC’s Naan Mudhalvan scheme, but this is just the beginning- our broader vision is to advance India’s competitive position in the development and adoption of quantum technology through our partnership.”
