- Completed upgrade of Quantinuum's Reimei quantum computer to its H2 system establishes RIKEN's hybrid quantum-supercomputing platform as the most capable of its kind in the world and creates a pathway to expand research across electronics, energy and life sciences.

- Quantinuum and RIKEN will build upon this pioneering computing architecture to develop a fault-tolerant "Made with Japan" quantum computer to extend Japan's long-term quantum leadership.

- To further accelerate commercial adoption of quantum-AI hybrid supercomputing in Japan, the partners will collaborate with SoftBank Corp. to develop a path to connect quantum computers directly with AI data centers.

TOKYO, Nov. 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Quantinuum (NASDAQ: QNT), a leading full-stack quantum computing company, and RIKEN, Japan's leading national comprehensive research institute, today announced an expanded partnership to advance quantum-AI hybrid supercomputing in Japan. Following a significant upgrade to Quantinuum's Reimei quantum computer at RIKEN, the partners will pursue more advanced scientific and industrial applications, work with Japanese universities and suppliers toward the development of a "Made with Japan" fault-tolerant quantum computer, and collaborate with SoftBank Corp. to explore the connection of quantum computer with AI data centers in Japan.

Quantinuum's quantum computer, Reimei, installed at RIKEN, has successfully completed its upgrade to System Model H2. Reimei is operated as part of the JHPC-quantum project, funded by NEDO. This upgrade further enhances the capabilities of the project's quantum–HPC hybrid computing platform and enables researchers to investigate more complex quantum systems that are increasingly difficult to simulate using classical computing alone, broadening the scientific problems they can explore.

Quantinuum and RIKEN will use the upgraded platform to combine quantum computing, supercomputing and AI in support of use case development across electronics, energy…
