Quantinuum launched the Helios, a 98-qubit trapped-ion quantum computer with 99.921% two-qubit gate fidelity, designed to support hybrid quantum-classical workflows for generative quantum AI. The company has formed global partnerships including with Singapore’s National Quantum Office to install systems locally and expand R&D, marking a significant push into enterprise quantum computing.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Quantum Computing.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

Quantum computing just moved from lab prototypes to enterprise-ready machines with Helios' high-fidelity trapped-ion system. If you develop quantum AI or hybrid classical-quantum applications, your chance to test or deploy on a proven platform just widened significantly.
