Russian Quantum Centre has signed a strategic agreement with VKontakte (VK), the Russian social media platform, to accelerate the development of quantum computing in the country using the VK Cloud platform. The companies signed an agreement on strategic cooperation, recently at the Future Technologies Forum, in Moscow.

One of the primary objectives of this collaboration is the creation of a cloud environment that will enable faster progress in quantum computing research and development. The partners envision building a quantum computer accessible through cloud services, allowing researchers and business users to run key quantum algorithms in real time. This approach is expected to address technological and infrastructural challenges and has already yielded remarkable computational results, breaking records in Russia.
