Develop quantum computers that are truly practical and usable
Yaqumo’s mission is to continually expand humanity’s computational capabilities.
Who we are
We are dedicated to achieving dramatic advances in computational power and driving the evolution of industry and society through the research and development of innovative quantum computer hardware based on neutral atoms. The neutral atom approach is a next-generation technology that addresses the practical challenges of quantum computing, thanks to its high scalability and stable qubit performance.
Yaqumo was founded by members of Kyoto University’s Takahashi Laboratory and the Institute for Molecular Science’s Ohmori Laboratory, both of which are global leaders in neutral atom quantum research. We strive to unlock new possibilities that quantum computers can bring to a wide range of fields—including materials science, chemistry, pharmaceuticals, and finance—thereby contributing to enhanced industrial competitiveness.
Bringing the power of quantum to society — We aim to solve society’s most complex challenges and create a more prosperous future through cutting-edge quantum technology.
Yaqumo was founded with the goal of researching, developing, and commercializing the world’s most advanced cold atom quantum computers.
We are promoting the research and development of quantum computers that will change the world, in collaboration with the Takahashi Laboratory at Kyoto University—one of the world’s leading research groups in cold atom physics—and the Omori Laboratory at the Institute for Molecular Science, which leads globally in quantum computer R&D, as well as with domestic and international hardware and software companies.
Logo Concept
The company name “Yaqumo” is derived from the Japanese word “Yakumo” (meaning “eight clouds”), and the logo as a whole is composed of eight clouds. The color scheme features a futuristic blue-based gradient, symbolizing growth and progress toward new horizons in the future.
Strength / The Strengths of Yaqumo
Our goal is to develop quantum computers that are truly practical and usable.
To this end, our R&D is based on the premise of building quantum computers with scalable quantum error correction capabilities. We also aim for industrial implementation of quantum computers by earnestly addressing the challenges of cold atom-based systems and working closely with external partners.
