"Vancouver-based startup Photonic is not the first Canadian contender in the race to build the world鈥檚 first usable quantum computer, but it looks like the horse worth betting on. Using the principles of subatomic physics, quantum computing can solve highly complex problems at a speed that makes current laptops look like cave drawings. In 2022, Simmons and her team revealed their game-changing innovation: a silicon chip that holds up to 150,000 quantum bits. You don鈥檛 have to know what that means, but Microsoft does. The software giant backed a US$100-million funding round aimed at a commercial product within the next five years. Before then, expect 鈥渜uantum-ready鈥� to take over as the new unavoidable tech-world jargon."
