Problem
Access to practical quantum computing resources and expertise is limited in Pakistan, restricting academic research, industry innovation, and skilled workforce development in emerging quantum technologies.
Solution
CETQAP addresses this gap by establishing a private quantum institute that combines research, education, and industry services. It offers PakTron, a 100‑qubit AI‑assisted quantum simulator, enabling large‑scale quantum experiments and learning without physical hardware. The institute is launching QQ1, a 400‑qubit quantum computer, to provide native quantum processing capabilities for advanced applications. BARQ, a dedicated software framework, streamlines programming, simulation, and execution of workloads on QQ1. Together, these assets create a comprehensive ecosystem for training, prototyping, and deploying quantum solutions across academia and industry.
Target Audience
Primary customers are universities, research institutes, and technology companies in Pakistan and South Asia seeking quantum computing resources, as well as students and professionals pursuing quantum science and AI training.
