QuEra has partnered with HPE to integrate its neutral-atom quantum computer within HPE Cray-powered high-performance computing (HPC) environments.
Key facts
- In September 2025, QuEra announced an investment from NVentures, Nvidia’s venture capital arm, expanding on the $230 million Series B round raised by the company in February of that same year
- Massachusetts-based QuEra was founded in 2018, based on research conducted at Harvard and MIT
- QuEra has partnered with HPE to integrate its neutral-atom quantum computer within HPE Cray-powered high-performance computing (HPC) environments
- The partnership with Amazon was announced in June 2026, and will provide access to Libra, QuEra’s first fault-tolerant quantum computer capable of tackling scientifically relevant problems
Summary
The quantum firm said the collaboration will provide HPC centers, national laboratories, and enterprises with a path to bring “QuEra's frontier systems into new supercomputing infrastructure.” QuEra and HPE will also pursue integrated testbeds, hybrid algorithm co-design, software interoperability, and system-level performance benchmarking, as part of the agreement. Because of the partnership, QuEra noted that customers will now have two ways to access its quantum computers: through HPE-backed on-premises deployments, and via the cloud, in collaboration with Amazon’s Braket quantum cloud platform. The partnership with Amazon was announced in June 2026, and will provide access to Libra, QuEra’s first fault-tolerant quantum computer capable of tackling scientifically relevant problems.
