Founded in 2018 and based in Shenzhen, SpinQ has two main product lines: small-scale nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) quantum computers with about three qubits for educational use and industrial-grade superconducting quantum computers with up to 20 qubits.
SpinQ said it sold a range of products – including educational quantum computers, superconducting quantum computers, chips, quantum measurement and control systems and application software – to over 50 countries.
But SpinQ founder and CEO Xiang Jingen said quantum computing still had a lot of work to do before it was broadly applicable.
He compared today’s quantum technology to semiconductors in the 1950s, a time when computers were expensive and large and transitioning from vacuum tubes to transistors – and then to integrated circuits.
