In Chattanooga, quantum is on! @​EPB Chattanooga has put Chattanooga on the map of leading quantum hubs. An IonQ Forte Enterprise quantum chip, used in the quantum computer onsite, can now be seen at its headquarters. But the real magic is happening across Chattanooga and the region where researchers, enterprises, and local startups will have access to quantum computing, networking, and memory—a true platform of quantum solutions. The benefits expand from there with new investment: 🔸 Hundreds of new jobs, and expansions in research with The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga and Vanderbilt University 🔸 A hybrid quantum-classical supercomputing project with the EPB Quantum Fellows, we are contributing to along with EPB, National Institute of Standards and Technology (@​NIST), Oak Ridge National Laboratory (@​ORNL) and a leading AI chip manufacturer. #IonQ #QuantumIsNow #Chattanooga #Tennessee ▻
