Quantum🍻Barcelona w\ Qilimanjaro Quantum Tech

In our next episode of Quantum🍻Barcelona, we are delighted to have Marta P Estarellas and Ramiro Sagastizabal who will introduce us to one of the latest start-ups of the Barcelona quantum community: Qilimanjaro Quantum Tech.

Qilimanjaro Quantum Tech is a 2019 founded start-up in quantum computing based in Barcelona. Qilimanjaro counts with an integrated hardware and software team that focuses on coherent quantum annealing high-quality qubit architectures to deliver scalable app-specific quantum processors and services in a short timeframe. In this talk we will present an overview of the mission and vision of Qilimanjaro from both a hardware and software perspective. Website: https://www.qilimanjaro.tech/

Marta P Estarellas is a Senior Quantum Engineer of Qilimanjaro’s Software team. She is also a visiting researcher and collaborator at the National Institute of Informatics (Tokyo) and the University of York (UK). Before coming to Barcelona she was a postdoctoral researcher of the Global Research Center for Quantum Information Science at NII, where she developed optimization techniques for compiling quantum algorithms in large-scale fault-tolerant quantum computer architectures and explored the used of current NISQ devices as dedicated computers to simulate complex networks. She holds a PhD in Physics at the York Centre for Quantum Technologies (University of York, UK), where she investigated the uses of spin-chain systems for quantum information applications.

Ramiro Sagastizabal is a Senior Quantum Engineer of Qilimanjaro’s Hardware team. He is currently awaiting the appointment of his doctoral defense at TU Delft. During his thesis, he conducted experimental research with transmon quantum processors, covering all experimental layers: device design and fabrication, cryogenics and electrical control, and finally characterization, tune-up and operation of quantum processors for quantum simulations.
