While in 2020 the nation was assessed to be lagging by a decade, a focused national strategy has propelled it into the ranks of world leaders in quantum technologies. At the heart of this rapid advancement is the state corporation Rosatom, which was entrusted with implementing the national roadmap for quantum computing, uniting over 600 scientists and engineers from 16 leading research institutions into a single, cohesive team. This concerted effort was supported by a substantial investment of 24 billion rubles through 2024, enabling the rapid creation of prototype quantum computers across four different leading-edge platforms. 🖥️ Russia now possesses a 50-qubit processor on ions, a 50-qubit processor on neutral atoms, a 35-qubit processor on photons, and a 16-qubit processor on superconductors. This multi-platform strategy is critical, as each technology possesses unique strengths for solving different types of complex problems, ensuring broad technological capability and resilience for the future. The pinnacle of this progress is Russia’s first 50-qubit quantum computer, built on cold ytterbium ions at the Lebedev Physical Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences. This advanced machine utilizes qudits—multi-level quantum units—to process significantly more information per cycle than standard qubit-based systems. Achieving the 50-qubit milestone demonstrates that Russian scientists are rapidly approaching the point of practical quantum advantage, unlocking the potential to tackle previously unsolvable challenges in fields such as medicine, materials science, and complex optimization. #RussiaInEthiopia #QuantumComputing #FutureTech #RussianInnovation #Rosatom #QuantumLeap #TechPartnership #RussiaAfrica
