European Quantum Startup Alice & Bob Promises a Functional Quantum Computer with "Cat Qubits" by 2030 TECHNOLOGY

Named after Schrödinger’s paradox, these qubits feature a built-in error correction mechanism that could significantly simplify quantum computing. Investors have embraced the concept, pouring €100 million into the project, making it one of the largest in Europe’s quantum industry.

According to CEO Théau Peronnin, the quantum computing sector has seen a noticeable shift toward fault-tolerant technologies in recent years. He believes that conventional computer architectures are gradually giving way to quantum technologies, as computational power becomes a critical asset in the modern economy.

While Alice & Bob’s exact market valuation remains undisclosed, TechCrunch estimates it at around €400 million. The new funding will accelerate the company’s efforts to develop stable quantum computers capable of hardware-level error correction.

Meanwhile, the American startup Nirvanic Consciousness Technologies is exploring the potential of quantum mechanics for modeling machine consciousness. Their project, based on the Penrose-Hameroff theory, aims to create a next-generation artificial intelligence system.
