'Tech is booming': Canada's first quantum computing hub boots up in southern Alberta

SOUTHERN ALBERTA, CANADA, AUG 2 – The hub offers businesses access to a web-based supercomputer solving complex problems, with telehealth and logistics among early users, forming part of a global network.

  • In southern Alberta, a quantum computing hub created by SuperQ Quantum Computing recently opened at the Tecconnect innovation centre at Economic Development Lethbridge, offering a publicly accessible supercomputer to local businesses.
  • The Lethbridge Super hub, the first node in a planned network, was established at Tecconnect, which Khan described as a full-circle moment since his journey started there, he explained.
  • By combining classical and quantum computing, Muhammad Khan says the platform Super is web-based and allows users to ask complex questions in plain English, testing solutions like delivery routes or staff scheduling.
  • Following the launch, Renae Barlow said emerging technologies like Tecconnect can keep businesses competitive, reflecting local demand; Khan has not made such comments.
  • The Alberta hub is set to expand with sites in Canada, the United States, Europe, India, and the United Arab Emirates.
