Commercialising Quantum Computers
Big, stable quantum computers would be useful devices. By exploiting the counterintuitive properties of quantum mechanics they could perform some calculations (though only some) faster than any conceivable non-quantum machine.

Building the world’s first useful quantum computer
Quantum computing may be the most profoundly world-changing technology uncovered to date - it could bring about revolutionary, urgently needed transformations in climate, energy and healthcare. The only outstanding question is this: How do you build such a machine?

How Quantum Computing Could Beat Climate Change
Imagine being able to cheaply and easily “suck” carbon directly out of our atmosphere. Such a capability would be hugely powerful in the fight against climate change and advance us towards the ambitious global climate goals set.
Surely that’s science fiction? Well, maybe not. Quantum computing may be just the tool we need to design such a clean, safe and easy-to-deploy innovation.

Quantum Computing: 1 million qubits
Nothing has changed the world more than our ability to compute. But the big problems that we’d really like computing to solve are so difficult that, even if Moore’s Law did continue, conventional computers could never solve them. The good news is that a solution is at hand: quantum computing - a drastically different approach to computing that is profound both in terms of the fundamental laws of physics it exploits, and the transformations it will bring about in our lives, society and economy.
