BQP Raises $5M to Scale Quantum-Enhanced Digital Twin Platform
- New funding will accelerate the development of BQPhy, a simulation platform built for hybrid computing architectures.
- The raise follows a pilot with the Air Force Research Lab focused on high-speed modeling for mission-critical systems.
BQP has secured $5 million in seed financing to expand BQPhy, its digital twin platform designed to run across CPUs, GPUs, and quantum systems. The current version uses quantum-inspired solvers that deliver up to 10X speed improvements on today’s hardware. Future quantum-native versions are projected to reach 1000X gains on next-generation quantum computers.
"Our quantum-inspired solvers are setting a new benchmark in simulation technology, bridging today's computational limits and the quantum-ready future," said Abhishek Chopra, BQP's Founder, CEO, and Chief Scientific Officer, in an official press release.
The company is collaborating with the U.S. Air Force Research Laboratory to enhance modeling capabilities for aerospace and defense. Additional design partners include major A&D firms, the Indian Ministry of Heavy Industries, and ABB.
BQPhy’s solvers can run independently or as a unified digital twin framework that integrates with existing engineering workflows. It’s being positioned as a flexible backend for high-speed simulation across industries like aerospace, semiconductors, and energy.
🌀 Tom’s Take:
If digital twins are the brains of complex systems, quantum could be the upgrade that finally gives them hindsight, insight, and foresight all at once. This will not only let them run simulations faster but also enable these systems to identify patterns we have never been able to catch, and respond before things happen.
