- Successfully developed Quantum Proof-of-Work (QPoW) technology that reduces blockchain energy consumption
- Secured research collaboration with a renowned quantum research institution
- Gained access to PhD talent through CSIRO-funded program
- None.
- Strategic Collaboration: BTQ Technologies and Macquarie University have launched a research partnership to advance quantum algorithms and secure communications, building on their successful 2022 Quantum Proof-of-Work project.
- Key Objectives: The collaboration aims to integrate quantum processing into communication protocols to improve speed, security, and energy efficiency, with support from Sydney Quantum Academy PhD students funded by CSIRO.
- Industry-Academic Synergy: This partnership represents an opportunity for BTQ's industry leaders to collaborate with Macquarie's quantum experts, pushing the boundaries of quantum computing and mission critical networks.
The collaboration builds on the success of an earlier contract initiated in 2022, which resulted in the development of Quantum Proof-of-Work (QPoW). This novel approach to distributed consensus dramatically reduces the energy footprint of blockchain technologies by integrating quantum samplers into the consensus mechanism.
The new research contract commenced on June 1, 2024, with Dr Gopikrishnan Muraleedharan and Professor Gavin Brennen from Macquarie University at the helm. The Macquarie team will also oversee Sydney Quantum Academy PhD students funded through the CSIRO's Creating the Next Generation of Quantum Technology Specialists program. This initiative includes internships at BTQ, presenting an exciting opportunity for BTQ's industry leaders to work alongside Macquarie's quantum experts and push the boundaries of the field.
"Collaborating with BTQ Technologies offers a unique opportunity to address the pressing security challenges posed by the advent of large-scale quantum computers," said Professor Brennen who is also Director of BTQ AU. "BTQ's foundation by post-quantum security experts and its dedication to tackling quantum security threats aligns perfectly with our mission at Macquarie. With the support of leading research institutes, we aim to leverage BTQ's comprehensive technology portfolio to accelerate quantum advantage."
"The partnership with BTQ Technologies represents a significant advancement in translating quantum research into real-world applications," says Professor Dan Johnson, Pro Vice-Chancellor (Research, Innovation and Enterprise) at Macquarie.
"This collaboration not only strengthens our quantum computing capabilities but also provides valuable industry experience for our PhD students."
"We are thrilled to collaborate with Macquarie University, which has a renowned reputation in quantum research," said Nicolas Roussy Newton, COO of BTQ Technologies. "Together, we are poised to unlock new frontiers in secure communications and sustainable blockchain technologies through quantum computing innovations. This partnership exemplifies BTQ's commitment to advancing quantum technology and fostering the next generation of quantum specialists."
This partnership underscores BTQ's dedication to quantum research and development, marking a major milestone in the company's ongoing journey to revolutionize secure communications and blockchain technologies.
