IBM and Lockheed Martin announce a new quantum innovation hub in Switzerland, hosted at ETH Zurich. The plan extends their existing collaboration by launching research projects with selected Swiss academic institutions, with access to quantum computing resources provided through the hub.
The hub is anchored by a new IBM Quantum System Two located at ETH Zurich’s Swiss National Supercomputing Centre. According to the announcement, this setup is intended to expand access to participating institutions across Switzerland and support further quantum research and development.
One outlet frames the news primarily as the establishment of the “innovation hub” in Switzerland, while another emphasizes the hub’s physical anchoring at ETH Zurich and the role of Switzerland’s first IBM quantum computer. Across coverage, the core details remain the same: the partnership, the ETH Zurich location, the IBM Quantum System Two deployment, and the plan to run projects with Swiss academic partners.
